The wheel picker consists of two main components:

WheelPickerWrapper

The wrapper component that contains one or more wheel pickers. It provides the container structure and handles the layout of multiple wheels.

WheelPicker

The core component that renders a single wheel of options. Each wheel picker consists of:

A container with a 3D perspective
A scrollable list of options
A highlight area that indicates the selected option
A mask that creates the fade effect at the top and bottom

Usage

import {
  WheelPicker,
  WheelPickerWrapper,
  type WheelPickerOption,
} from "@/components/wheel-picker";

const options: WheelPickerOption[] = [
  {
    label: "Next.js",
    value: "nextjs",
  },
  {
    label: "Vite",
    value: "vite",
  },
  // ...
];
 
export function WheelPickerDemo() {
  const [value, setValue] = useState("nextjs");
 
  return (
    <WheelPickerWrapper>
      <WheelPicker options={options} value={value} onValueChange={setValue} />
    </WheelPickerWrapper>
  );
}
