Stepper

Steppers convey progress through numbered steps. It provides a wizard-like workflow.

Steppers display progress through a sequence of logical and numbered steps. They may also be used for navigation. Steppers may display a transient feedback message after a step is saved.

  • Types of Steps: Editable, Non-editable, Mobile, Optional
  • Types of Steppers: Horizontal, Vertical, Linear, Non-linear

Horizontal stepper

Horizontal steppers are ideal when the contents of one step depend on an earlier step.

Avoid using long step names in horizontal steppers.

Linear

A linear stepper allows the user to complete the steps in sequence.

The Stepper can be controlled by passing the current step index (zero-based) as the activeStep prop. Stepper orientation is set using the orientation prop.

This example also shows the use of an optional step by placing the optional prop on the second Step component. Note that it's up to you to manage when an optional step is skipped. Once you've determined this for a particular step you must set completed={false} to signify that even though the active step index has gone beyond the optional step, it's not actually complete.

Step 1

Non-linear

Non-linear steppers allow the user to enter a multi-step flow at any point.

This example is similar to the regular horizontal stepper, except steps are no longer automatically set to disabled={true} based on the activeStep prop.

The use of the StepButton here demonstrates clickable step labels, as well as setting the completed flag. However because steps can be accessed in a non-linear fashion, it's up to your own implementation to determine when all steps are completed (or even if they need to be completed).

Step 1

Alternative label

Labels can be placed below the step icon by setting the alternativeLabel prop on the Stepper component.

Vertical stepper

Vertical steppers are designed for narrow screen sizes. They are ideal for mobile. All the features of the horizontal stepper can be implemented.

Select campaign settings

For each ad campaign that you create, you can control how much you're willing to spend on clicks and conversions, which networks and geographical locations you want your ads to show on, and more.

Performance

The content of a step is unmounted when closed. If you need to make the content available to search engines or render expensive component trees inside your modal while optimizing for interaction responsiveness it might be a good idea to keep the step mounted with:

<StepContent TransitionProps={{ unmountOnExit: false }} />

Mobile stepper

This component implements a compact stepper suitable for a mobile device. It has more limited functionality than the vertical stepper. See mobile steps for its inspiration.

The mobile stepper supports three variants to display progress through the available steps: text, dots, and progress.

Text

The current step and total number of steps are displayed as text.

Dots

Use dots when the number of steps is small.

Progress

Use a progress bar when there are many steps, or if there are steps that need to be inserted during the process (based on responses to earlier steps).
