Quick Start Example

import { UploaderComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-inputs/styles/material.css';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-popups/styles/material.css';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs/styles/material.css';

function App() {
  // ⚠️ Replace with your own server-side endpoints.
  // Never use third-party demo URLs in production — files will be sent to that external server.
  const asyncSettings = {
    saveUrl: '/api/upload/save',
    removeUrl: '/api/upload/remove'
  };

  const onSuccess = (args: any) => {
    console.log('Upload operation:', args.operation, 'File:', args.file.name);
  };

  const onFailure = (args: any) => {
    console.error('Upload failed:', args.file.name);
  };

  return (
    <UploaderComponent
      asyncSettings={asyncSettings}
      autoUpload={false}
      success={onSuccess}
      failure={onFailure}
    />
  );
}

Common Patterns

#### Auto Upload with Validation

<UploaderComponent
  asyncSettings={{ saveUrl: '/api/upload/save', removeUrl: '/api/upload/remove' }}
  allowedExtensions=".pdf,.doc,.docx"
  maxFileSize={5000000}
  multiple={true}
/>

#### Manual Upload with Custom Buttons

<UploaderComponent
  asyncSettings={{ saveUrl: '/api/upload/save', removeUrl: '/api/upload/remove' }}
  autoUpload={false}
  buttons={{ browse: 'Choose File', clear: 'Clear All', upload: 'Upload All' }}
/>

#### Chunk Upload for Large Files

<UploaderComponent
  asyncSettings={{
    saveUrl: '/api/upload/save',
    removeUrl: '/api/upload/remove',
    chunkSize: 500000   // 500 KB chunks
  }}
/>

Quick Start Example

Here's a minimal working example to get started:

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { NumericTextBoxComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material3.css';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material3.css';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-inputs/styles/material3.css';

export default function App() {
  const [value, setValue] = useState(10);

  return (
    <div style={{ padding: '20px' }}>
      <h3>Enter a Number</h3>
      <NumericTextBoxComponent
        value={value}
        onChange={(e) => setValue(e.value)}
        min={0}
        max={100}
        step={1}
      />
      <p>Current Value: {value}</p>
    </div>
  );
}

Key points:

• Import NumericTextBoxComponent from @syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs
• Import required CSS themes (material3 in this example)
• Use value prop for the current numeric value
• Use onChange event to update React state
• Add min, max, step for validation and controls

Common Patterns

#### 1. Currency Input

<NumericTextBoxComponent
  value={99.99}
  format="c2"
  min={0}
  placeholder="Enter amount"
/>

#### 2. Percentage Input

<NumericTextBoxComponent
  value={50}
  format="p"
  min={0}
  max={100}
/>

#### 3. Integer-Only Input

<NumericTextBoxComponent
  value={10}
  decimals={0}
  step={1}
  min={0}
/>

#### 4. Bounded Range with Validation

<NumericTextBoxComponent
  value={25}
  min={0}
  max={100}
  strictMode={true}
  placeholder="0-100"
/>

#### 5. Form Field with Label

<div>
  <label>Product Quantity:</label>
  <NumericTextBoxComponent
    value={qty}
    onChange={(e) => setQty(e.value)}
    min={1}
    step={1}
    prefix="Units: "
  />
</div>

Next Steps

1. Package requirement: The packages @syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs, @syncfusion/ej2-base, and @syncfusion/ej2-buttons must be present in your project's package.json. Confirm they are already installed and that your lockfile (e.g., package-lock.json or yarn.lock) pins their versions for supply-chain integrity. When adding them, use an explicit version range such as @syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs@^27.x.x to avoid unpinned dependency risks.
2. Getting Started reference: For installation details and basic setup, see references/getting-started.md.
3. Choose your reference: Based on your use case (formatting, validation, forms, etc.), navigate to the relevant reference section above.
4. Review examples: Each reference contains ready-to-use code samples that can be adapted to your requirements.
5. Customize: Modify the examples to fit your specific use case and application needs.

Quick Start

#### Basic Single Value Slider

import React from 'react';
import { SliderComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs/styles/material.css';

function App() {
  return (
    <div>
      <SliderComponent 
        id="slider" 
        value={30}
        min={0}
        max={100}
      />
    </div>
  );
}
export default App;

#### Range Slider (Two Handles)

import React from 'react';
import { SliderComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs/styles/material.css';

function App() {
  const [range, setRange] = React.useState([30, 70]);

  return (
    <div>
      <SliderComponent 
        id="range-slider" 
        type="Range"
        value={range}
        change={(e) => setRange(e.value)}
        min={0}
        max={100}
      />
    </div>
  );
}
export default App;

#### Price Range Selector

import React from 'react';
import { SliderComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs';
import '@syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs/styles/material.css';

function PriceRangeSelector() {
  const [priceRange, setPriceRange] = React.useState([100, 500]);
  
  const tooltip = {
    placement: 'Before',
    isVisible: true,
    format: 'C2'  // Currency format
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <h3>Price Range: ${priceRange[0]} - ${priceRange[1]}</h3>
      <SliderComponent 
        id="price-slider"
        type="Range"
        value={priceRange}
        change={(e) => setPriceRange(e.value)}
        min={0}
        max={1000}
        step={10}
        tooltip={tooltip}
      />
    </div>
  );
}
export default PriceRangeSelector;

Common Patterns

#### Pattern 1: Single Value with Ticks Use Default type for simple numeric selection with visual scale.

<SliderComponent
  id="default-slider"
  value={40}
  min={0}
  max={100}
  step={5}
  ticks={{
    placement: 'After',
    largeStep: 20,
    smallStep: 5,
    showSmallTicks: true
  }}
/>

#### Pattern 2: Range with Fixed Limits Use Range type with limits to restrict handle movement to specific areas.

<SliderComponent
  id="limited-range"
  type="Range"
  value={[25, 75]}
  limits={{
    enabled: true,
    minStart: 10,
    minEnd: 40,
    maxStart: 60,
    maxEnd: 90
  }}
  tooltip={{ isVisible: true }}
/>

#### Pattern 3: Formatted Values (Currency) Display values as currency using format API.

<SliderComponent
  id="currency-slider"
  type="Range"
  value={[1000, 5000]}
  min={0}
  max={10000}
  step={100}
  tooltip={{
    isVisible: true,
    format: 'C0'  // Currency without decimals
  }}
  ticks={{
    placement: 'After',
    largeStep: 2000,
    format: 'C0'
  }}
/>

#### Pattern 4: Vertical Orientation Display slider vertically for space-constrained layouts.

<div style={{ height: '300px', width: '100px' }}>
  <SliderComponent
    id="vertical-slider"
    value={50}
    orientation="Vertical"
    tooltip={{ isVisible: true }}
  />
</div>

#### Pattern 5: With Increment/Decrement Buttons Add buttons to manually adjust slider values.

<SliderComponent
  id="button-slider"
  type="Range"
  value={[30, 70]}
  showButtons={true}
  tooltip={{ isVisible: true }}
/>

#### Pattern 6: Color Range (Zones) Paint distinct color sections on the slider track using colorRange.

import { ColorRangeDataModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-inputs';

const colorRange: ColorRangeDataModel[] = [
  { color: '#ff4040', start: 0,  end: 33  },   // Low zone — red
  { color: '#ffb300', start: 34, end: 66  },   // Mid zone — amber
  { color: '#00c853', start: 67, end: 100 }    // High zone — green
];

<SliderComponent
  id="color-slider"
  type="MinRange"
  value={50}
  colorRange={colorRange}
  tooltip={{ isVisible: true, showOn: 'Always' }}
/>

#### Pattern 7: Custom Value Scale Use non-numeric labels as slider values with customValues.

<SliderComponent
  id="size-slider"
  customValues={['XS', 'S', 'M', 'L', 'XL', 'XXL']}
  value="M"
  tooltip={{ isVisible: true }}
/>

#### Pattern 8: Read-Only Display Show a locked slider for informational display.

<SliderComponent
  id="status-slider"
  type="MinRange"
  value={65}
  min={0}
  max={100}
  readonly={true}
  tooltip={{ isVisible: true, showOn: 'Always' }}
  ticks={{ placement: 'After', largeStep: 20 }}
/>

Key Properties

Type Comparison

Common Use Cases

#### Budget Range Selector Select min and max budget with step increments and currency formatting. → Use type="Range", step={50}, format 'C0', tooltip enabled

#### Time Range Picker Select time window (hours, minutes, days). → Use type="Range", custom formatting via renderingTicks event

#### Volume/Brightness Control Single handle adjustment with immediate feedback. → Use type="Default", no ticks, always-visible tooltip

#### Score/Rating Range MinRange mode with shadow showing current level. → Use type="MinRange", min={0}, max={10}, step-based

#### Product Filter Multiple product categories with price ranges. → Use type="Range", limits for each category, event handlers

Events

⚠️ Note: The official event for continuous updates while dragging is change, not changing. The event fired after drag completes is changed. Do NOT use onChange prop (that is a React native input prop). Use change and changed directly.

Troubleshooting Quick Links

Component not displaying? → Check CSS imports and theme in getting-started.md

Values not updating? → Use change (continuous) or changed (on release) events — NOT onChange

Formatting not working? → See format API examples in formatting-and-limits.md

Accessibility issues? → Refer to accessibility.md for ARIA and keyboard support

Vertical slider not rendering? → Wrap in a container with explicit height (e.g., style={{ height: '300px' }})

Range type with single value? → Always pass value={[start, end]} array for type="Range"

Color zones not showing? → Check colorRange array has valid start/end/color properties

Next Steps

1. Choose your slider type based on use case (Default, MinRange, or Range)
2. Read getting-started.md for installation
3. Navigate to specific reference for your feature needs
4. Test with examples from reference files
5. Customize styling using styling.md
6. Ensure accessibility following accessibility.md
7. Verify all API usage against api-reference.md

⚠️ Critical: Only use APIs explicitly listed in references/api-reference.md. Do not reference onChange (use change/changed), toggle(), open(), close(), or any undocument
