Tooltip

Tooltips display a brief, informative message that appears when a user interacts with an element.

Installation

The above command is for individual installation only. You may skip this step if @heroui/react is already installed globally.

Import

For individual installation, please note that you should add ./node_modules/@heroui/theme/dist/components/popover.js to your tailwind.config.js file instead since tooltip reuses popover styles.

With Delay

You can control the open and close delay of the tooltip with delay and closeDelay props.

Hovering over the second button shows the tooltip immediately. If you wait for a delay before hovering another element, the delay restarts.
