| 3 | +description: Display interactive file tree structures with expandable folders |
| 4 | +--- |
| 5 | + |
| 6 | +The `<Files>` component creates visual file tree structures with expandable folders and nested files. Use it to show project structures, directory layouts, or any hierarchical file organization in your documentation. |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +The component consists of three parts: `<Files>` as the container, `<Folder>` for directories, and `<File>` for individual files. |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +## Usage |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +<div className="highlight-frame"> |
| 13 | +<Files> |
| 14 | + <Folder name="app" defaultOpen> |
| 15 | + <File name="layout.tsx" /> |
| 16 | + <File name="page.tsx" /> |
| 17 | + <File name="global.css" /> |
| 18 | + </Folder> |
| 19 | + <Folder name="components"> |
| 20 | + <File name="button.tsx" /> |
| 21 | + <File name="tabs.tsx" /> |
| 22 | + </Folder> |
| 23 | + <File name="package.json" /> |
| 24 | +</Files> |
| 25 | +</div> |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +```jsx Markdown |
| 28 | +<Files> |
| 29 | + <Folder name="app" defaultOpen> |
| 30 | + <File name="layout.tsx" /> |
| 31 | + <File name="page.tsx" /> |
| 32 | + <File name="global.css" /> |
| 33 | + </Folder> |
| 34 | + <Folder name="components"> |
| 35 | + <File name="button.tsx" /> |
| 36 | + <File name="tabs.tsx" /> |
| 37 | + </Folder> |
| 38 | + <File name="package.json" /> |
| 39 | +</Files> |
| 40 | +``` |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +## Variants |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +### Nested folders |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +You can nest folders within folders to create deep directory structures. The component automatically adds visual nesting lines to show the hierarchy. |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +<div className="highlight-frame"> |
| 49 | +<Files> |
| 50 | + <Folder name="src" defaultOpen> |
| 51 | + <Folder name="components" defaultOpen> |
| 52 | + <Folder name="ui"> |
| 53 | + <File name="button.tsx" /> |
| 54 | + <File name="input.tsx" /> |
| 55 | + </Folder> |
| 56 | + <File name="header.tsx" /> |
| 57 | + </Folder> |
| 58 | + <Folder name="lib"> |
| 59 | + <File name="utils.ts" /> |
| 60 | + </Folder> |
| 61 | + </Folder> |
| 62 | + <File name="package.json" /> |
| 63 | +</Files> |
| 64 | +</div> |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +```jsx Markdown |
| 67 | +<Files> |
| 68 | + <Folder name="src" defaultOpen> |
| 69 | + <Folder name="components" defaultOpen> |
| 70 | + <Folder name="ui"> |
| 71 | + <File name="button.tsx" /> |
| 72 | + <File name="input.tsx" /> |
| 73 | + </Folder> |
| 74 | + <File name="header.tsx" /> |
| 75 | + </Folder> |
| 76 | + <Folder name="lib"> |
| 77 | + <File name="utils.ts" /> |
| 78 | + </Folder> |
| 79 | + </Folder> |
| 80 | + <File name="package.json" /> |
| 81 | +</Files> |
| 82 | +``` |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +### Linked files and folders |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +Add the `href` property to make files or folders clickable. This is useful for linking to GitHub repositories, documentation pages, or other resources. |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | +<div className="highlight-frame"> |
| 89 | +<Files> |
| 90 | + <Folder name="src" defaultOpen href="https://github.com/example/repo/tree/main/src"> |
| 91 | + <File name="index.ts" href="https://github.com/example/repo/blob/main/src/index.ts" /> |
| 92 | + <File name="utils.ts" href="https://github.com/example/repo/blob/main/src/utils.ts" /> |
| 93 | + </Folder> |
| 94 | + <File name="README.md" href="https://github.com/example/repo/blob/main/README.md" /> |
| 95 | +</Files> |
| 96 | +</div> |
| 97 | + |
| 98 | +```jsx Markdown |
| 99 | +<Files> |
| 100 | + <Folder name="src" defaultOpen href="https://github.com/example/repo/tree/main/src"> |
| 101 | + <File name="index.ts" href="https://github.com/example/repo/blob/main/src/index.ts" /> |
| 102 | + <File name="utils.ts" href="https://github.com/example/repo/blob/main/src/utils.ts" /> |
| 103 | + </Folder> |
| 104 | + <File name="README.md" href="https://github.com/example/repo/blob/main/README.md" /> |
| 105 | +</Files> |
| 106 | +``` |
| 107 | + |
| 108 | +### Default open folders |
| 109 | + |
| 110 | +Use the `defaultOpen` property to have specific folders expanded when the page loads. This is useful for highlighting important directories or showing the most relevant parts of a file structure. |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | +<div className="highlight-frame"> |
| 113 | +<Files> |
| 114 | + <Folder name="src" defaultOpen> |
| 115 | + <File name="index.ts" /> |
| 116 | + <File name="app.ts" /> |
| 117 | + </Folder> |
| 118 | + <Folder name="tests"> |
| 119 | + <File name="app.test.ts" /> |
| 120 | + </Folder> |
| 121 | +</Files> |
| 122 | +</div> |
| 123 | + |
| 124 | +```jsx Markdown |
| 125 | +<Files> |
| 126 | + <Folder name="src" defaultOpen> |
