Components

Tooltip

Show short contextual help anchored to an element.

The component is built on Reka UI popover primitives: hovering or focusing the anchor shows the bubble, moving the pointer or focus away hides it, and Escape dismisses it. Opening and closing never moves focus — it stays on the anchor, so the tooltip works for keyboard users without trapping them.

Because the bubble can disappear, don't put essential or interactive content inside it — keep actions and links in the anchored element itself.
