Install

// yarn
yarn add react-grand-tour

// npm
npm install -S react-grand-tour

Why

Some applications can get really complicated a feature rich, making them hard for new users to pick up and use effectively.

If only there was a way of making that process easier 🤔

Use ReactGrandTour to give your users a quick tour around your application. Highlighting core features and screen regions along the way.

Disclaimer. Safari does not support smooth scrolling to dom elements yet, so scrolling happens immediately. Other browsers which do support smooth scrolling to dom elements gently scroll between each step.

Modals which track fast moving objects have also been slowed down in Safari because it cannot handle rapidly repositioning dom elements smoothly.

Demo

You can also override the custom components which make up the touring overlay. Custom Components Demo.

Example

Take a look at the Playground for comprehensive examples of how to use this library.

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { ReactGrandTour, useGrandTour } from 'react-grand-tour';

const Steps = [
    {
        selector: `#first-step`,
        content: 'Welcome to React Grand Tour. This is my first tour step!',
    },
]

ReactDOM.render(
    <React.StrictMode>
        <ReactGrandTour steps={Steps}>
            <App />
        </ReactGrandTour>
    </React.StrictMode>,
    document.getElementById('root'),
);

const App = () => {
    const { open } = useGrandTour();

    return (
        <div>
            <div>
                <button onClick={open}>Open Tour</button>
            </div>
            <div id="first-step">My First Step</div>
        </div>
    )
}

Advanced Usage

The Demo shows how static and dynamic dom elements can be used in your application tours.

It also contains examples for anchoring the modal to a different element than the element you want highlighted in the tour step.

The Playground folder contains lots of examples of how to set up funky application tours.

Fast Moving Objects

Got an object which moves around frequently or changes size? No problem.

<ReactGrandTour
    steps={[
        {
            selector: '#my-step-id',
            content: 'Some Content',
            track: true,

            /**
             * Optional. Default 10.
             *
             * Highlight area + modal position update frequency in ms.
             *
             * Less frequent (higher number) tracking is better for performance.
             *
             */
            trackFrequency: 10,
        },
    ]}
>
    <App />
</ReactGrandTour>

Modal Anchoring

Want to highlight an element while anchoring the modal to its parent? No problem.

<ReactGrandTour
    steps={[
        {
            selector: '#my-step-id',
            anchorSelector: '#my-step-id-parent',
            content: 'Some Content',
        },
    ]}
>
    <App />
</ReactGrandTour>

Overriding With Custom Components

You can override every part of the modal in React Grand Tour by passing in your own components.

The Custom Components Demo shows an example of a tour with some components of the modal overriden. It's not pretty, but the sky is the limit when it comes to customising the modal.

// Close.tsx
const Close = () => (<div>X</div>);

<ReactGrandTour

        {
            selector: '#my-step-id',
            content: 'Some Content',
        },
