Sidebar required

[ShaunHalliday]

Hi All,

We are currently developing systems for clients using Paste (and other Twilio services) and to keep to the Paste standard we require a sidebar component. I cannot currently find anything in Paste to match this requirement, although an example of it is on Paste site: -

Also, sizeSidebar is applicable to width properties (example in below screenshot) in a Box component so I was wondering if Sidebar does exist but is not yet released: -

Thank you once again,

Shaun

Hello @ShaunHalliday,

That's very exciting, we'd love to see what you build if it can be shared publicly!

We do not currently have a Sidebar component on our Roadmap, however you can see how we put it together by composing Paste components for our website.

Also, sizeSidebar is applicable to width properties (example in below screenshot) in a Box component so I was wondering if Sidebar does exist but is not yet released: -

Good catch! While we do have the sizeSidebar token, it isn't foreshadowing a component release. We added that token to improve consistency in how UIs size their sidebars, so different products maintain a similar look in their layouts. We actually don't have any strong opinions about the rest of how a Sidebar is built, which is why we haven't shipped the encapsulating component. As a system, we tend to focus on smaller components that can be easily composed to build things like Sidebars.

Hope this helps clarify how we think about components and composition!
