Overview
Tippy.js is a powerful solution for creating tooltips, popovers, dropdowns, and menus on the web, built on the robust foundation of Popper. As a React wrapper for Tippy, it delivers a smooth user experience while enhancing accessibility and offering flexibility for developers. While Tippy excels in straightforward implementations with its default settings, it also accommodates advanced users who prefer a headless approach offering greater control and customization. This makes Tippy a versatile choice for both beginners and seasoned developers looking to add interactive elements to their applications.
