Approved

Popover

Provide the governed NexWell Popover contract for data display interfaces.

Purpose

Provide the governed NexWell Popover contract for data display interfaces.

NexWell tokens and WCAG behavior are authoritative; missing source fields remain explicit gaps.

When to use

Use Popover only for its documented data display purpose.

When not to use

Do not repurpose Popover as an unrelated interaction or bypass its tokens.

Anatomy

  1. trigger or container
  2. content
  3. state indicator

Specifications, variants, sizes, and states

Specifications

  • Exact dimensions, padding, gaps, icon sizes, radius, and typography: source-verification-required.
  • Implementation behavior is inspectable below; it is not evidence of founder approval.

Variants and sizes

default

source-verification-required: no governed component-specific size matrix is available

States

default · focus-visible · disabled where actionable · responsive · reduced motion

Measurements and typography

Every field is represented. A status is not a value: unresolved evidence cannot be converted into an implementation number.

Height / widthsource-verification-requiredNo approved exact value may be inferred.
PaddingpartialNo approved exact value may be inferred.
GappartialNo approved exact value may be inferred.
Radius / bordersource-verification-requiredNo approved exact value may be inferred.
Icon sizesource-verification-requiredNo approved exact value may be inferred.
Font / size / weight / line height / trackingpartialNo approved exact value may be inferred.

State matrix

Actual implementation states are listed below. Requested universal states not supported by the component API remain explicitly unclaimed.

Usage and content

Do

Use Popover with a clear accessible name and evidence-backed behavior.

Don’t

Do not repurpose Popover as an unrelated interaction or bypass its tokens.

Content rules

  • Use concise, task-specific labels.
  • Do not communicate state through color alone.
  • Allow localized text to wrap without hiding critical actions.

Accessibility, keyboard, responsive, and RTL

Accessibility

  • Programmatic name
  • Programmatic state
  • Logical focus order
  • No color-only meaning

Keyboard

  • Native behavior where available
  • Arrow-key composite navigation where required
  • Escape dismissal and focus restoration for overlays

Responsive and RTL

Reflows, scrolls, or becomes a bounded overlay without hiding critical actions.

Logical properties; arrow meaning follows spatial direction.

Actual package output

Interactive example

Preview width changes the bounded canvas; use the RTL control below to inspect logical layout.

Token mapping and source evidence

Traceable implementation

Uber-derived structural evidence, adapted through approved NexWell decisions.

Missing fields in the source remain documented source absence, not requirements invented by the implementation.

Evidence completeness

14 associated local source records. Statuses below come directly from the DS-13 Checkpoint 1 component evidence matrix.

Cross-platform implementation

React / TypeScript: current package API is shown above.

Flutter: source-verification-required — no canonical Flutter API or implementation mapping exists, and this web portal does not infer one.

AI agents: consume approved records only; preserve proposed and unresolved statuses and import the public component instead of recreating it.
