Modal

Prefer native dialog.showModal(), name the dialog and test Escape and focus restoration. Checkbox, anchor and native dialog examples have different accessibility behavior; CSS visibility is not full modal management.

Installation and initialization

npm install -D tailwindcss@4.2.1 @tailwindcss/cli@4.2.1 daisyui@5.7.47

This is a native CSS plugin, not a React component import. Build Tailwind 4 with the daisyUI plugin and load the generated stylesheet before copying an example. See the included setup guide; do not override an existing project's React or Tailwind versions blindly.

@import "tailwindcss";
@plugin "daisyui" { themes: light --default, dark --prefersdark; }

Source and executable behavior

Source files preserve the original code fences, including original comments and demo strings. The $$ class prefix placeholder must be resolved for your plugin configuration: without a prefix, $$btn becomes btn. Copy every listed source file for the chosen example, combine HTML/CSS/JS appropriately and implement native events. The preview's reviewed event adapters are not a backend or an automatically installed application runtime.

Complete first example

<!-- Open the modal using ID.showModal() method -->
<button class="$$btn" onclick="my_modal_1.showModal()">open modal</button>
<dialog id="my_modal_1" class="$$modal">
  <div class="$$modal-box">
    <h3 class="text-lg font-bold">Hello!</h3>
    <p class="py-4">Press ESC key or click the button below to close</p>
    <div class="$$modal-action">
      <form method="dialog">
        <!-- if there is a button in form, it will close the modal -->
        <button class="$$btn">Close</button>
      </form>
    </div>
  </div>
</dialog>

Theme, accessibility and verification

Use native data-theme boundaries. Verify keyboard operation, labels, visible focus, disabled/invalid states where applicable, light/dark, mobile and reduced motion. Check your target browser's dialog, popover and CSS feature support. CSS classes do not supply unimplemented JavaScript or business services. Clean up timers and third-party instances; copying a command is not installation success.
