SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

TanStack Ranger extracts and centralizes the complex logic required to implement accessible single-value, range, and multi-thumb sliders so developers can avoid reinventing handle coordination, keyboard interaction, and value interpolation while focusing on styling and markup.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Headless slider logic: manages values, sorting, handle interaction, and programmatic updates for single, range, and multi-thumb sliders.
  • Accessibility-first: supplies role, aria-valuemin, aria-valuemax, aria-valuenow, keyboard navigation, and focus management out of the box.
  • Flexible configuration: supports stepSize, custom steps, ticks, interpolators (including logarithmic), and onDrag/onChange hooks for real-time feedback.
  • Use Case: Implement price range filters, audio/video scrubbers, or timeline selection UI components that require multiple thumbs, precise steps, and full keyboard accessibility.

Quick Start

Create a React range slider using useRanger with two thumbs set to 25 and 75, keyboard navigation enabled, and an active track segment between the handles.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build an accessible multi-thumb range slider in React?

Use headless slider utilities to build accessible multi-thumb range sliders in React, which manage handle coordination, sorting, and keyboard interaction out of the box. You supply the markup and styling while the utility provides ARIA attributes and focus management.

What is headless slider logic and when do I need it for web applications?

Headless slider logic is a mechanism that extracts complex value management and accessibility features from UI components, needed when building interactive elements like price range filters or audio scrubbers. It lets developers focus on styling while handling ARIA attributes and keyboard navigation.

Does this range slider utility work with Vue, Svelte, Solid, and Angular?

Yes, the headless range slider utility works with web UI frameworks including React, Vue, Solid, Svelte, and Angular. It provides framework-agnostic logic for single-value, range, and multi-thumb sliders across these platforms.

How do I configure custom steps, ticks, and logarithmic interpolation for a range slider?

Configure custom steps, ticks, and logarithmic interpolation for a range slider by passing flexible configuration options like stepSize and interpolators to the utility. This setup allows precise value selection and supports both linear and logarithmic scales.

Why does my multi-range slider fail keyboard accessibility tests?

A multi-range slider fails keyboard accessibility tests when it lacks proper role, aria-valuemin, aria-valuemax, and keyboard navigation support. Using a headless utility provides these ARIA attributes and focus management automatically to satisfy accessibility requirements.
