## Quick Start
### 1. Install
Add to `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:phia_ui, "~> 0.1.0"}
]
end
```
Run:
```bash
mix deps.get
mix phia.install
```
### 2. Add the theme
In `assets/css/app.css`:
```css
@import "tailwindcss";
@import "../../../deps/phia_ui/priv/static/theme.css";
```
### 3. Eject components
```bash
mix phia.add button card badge dialog
```
### 4. Register hooks
```javascript
// assets/js/app.js
import PhiaDialog from "./phia_hooks/dialog"
import PhiaDropdownMenu from "./phia_hooks/dropdown_menu"
import PhiaTagsInput from "./phia_hooks/tags_input"
import PhiaRichTextEditor from "./phia_hooks/rich_text_editor"
import PhiaTooltip from "./phia_hooks/tooltip"

import PhiaChart from "./phia_hooks/chart"
let liveSocket = new LiveSocket("/live", Socket, {
params: { _csrf_token: csrfToken },
hooks: {
PhiaDialog, PhiaDropdownMenu, PhiaTagsInput, PhiaRichTextEditor,
PhiaTooltip, PhiaPopover, PhiaToast, PhiaDarkMode,
PhiaCommand, PhiaDateRangePicker, PhiaChart
}
})
```
> Hook files are copied to `assets/js/phia_hooks/` by `mix phia.install`.

})}
```
→ [Toast examples](docs/components/interactive.md#toast)
### Command Menu (Ctrl+K)

<.command id="cmd">
<.command_input id="cmd-input" on_change="search" placeholder="Search…" />
<.command_list id="cmd-results">
<.command_empty>No results.</.command_empty>

/>
```

## Mix Tasks
```bash
# Install core dependencies and setup
mix phia.install
# List all available components
mix phia.list
# Eject specific components into your codebase
mix phia.add button card badge dialog
# Generate the Lucide SVG sprite
mix phia.icons
```
---
## Ejectable Architecture
PhiaUI is not a traditional runtime dependency — components are **source code you own**:
```bash
mix phia.add button card dialog toast command
```
This copies Elixir modules and JS hooks directly into your project. After ejection, **you own the code**: read it, modify it, delete parts you don't need. PhiaUI has no opinion on your code after the copy.
```
lib/your_app_web/components/ui/button.ex ← yours to edit
assets/js/phia_hooks/dialog.js ← yours to edit
```
---
## ClassMerger
The `cn/1` function merges Tailwind classes with conflict resolution (last wins per group):
```elixir
import PhiaUi.ClassMerger, only: [cn: 1]
cn(["px-4 py-2", @class]) # => "px-4 py-2 mt-4" (if @class = "mt-4")
cn(["px-4", "px-8"]) # => "px-8" (conflict resolved)
cn(["text-red-500", @error && "text-destructive", nil]) # nil filtered out
```
Backed by an ETS-cached GenServer (`ClassMerger.Cache`) — zero overhead on repeated calls.
---
## TailwindCSS v4 Theme
The theme provides semantic OKLCH design tokens. Always use tokens, never hardcoded colors:
```css
/* ✓ Use semantic tokens */
bg-primary text-muted-foreground border-border bg-accent
/* ✗ Never hardcode */
bg-gray-900 text-[#333]
```
Dark mode support via `@custom-variant dark (&:where(.dark, .dark *))` — toggle the `.dark` class on `<html>` with `PhiaDarkMode`.
---
## Use Cases
- **Financial terminals** — StatCard + MetricGrid + PhiaChart for live P&L, position tracking, risk dashboards
- **BI dashboards** — ChartShell + PhiaChart wrapping ECharts with consistent card chrome and real-time push_event updates
- **SaaS admin panels** — Shell + Sidebar + DataGrid + Dialog + Toast for full CRUD interfaces
- **KPI monitors** — Metric grids with real-time trend indicators and Ctrl+K command palette
- **Booking and scheduling** — DateRangePicker for reservation flows with min/max constraints
- **Internal tools** — Form components with Ecto changeset integration and rich text content editing

## Contributing
We value **Clarity**, **Simplicity**, and **Testability**.
- All features require a specification with acceptance criteria before implementation
- TDD: write failing tests first (red → green)
- No Alpine.js, no npm deps for interactivity — vanilla JS hooks only
- `cn/1` implemented natively — no tw_merge or similar
- All interactive components require WAI-ARIA roles, states, and keyboard support
- All code passes `mix credo --strict` without warnings
