What the 🤡 is a Squircle???
This is a valid question and not everyone is aware of what a Squircle is. A squircle is an intermediate shape between a square and a circle - Webflow Blog. If you've ever seen an iPhone home screen, you've seen a squircle. When you add additional corner smoothing to a regular rectangle with rounded corners, you get a squircle. It's a long story, but in short - you can't achieve Squircles in plain CSS, we have to do extra calculations for that, which is where the figma-squircle package comes in. Building on top of that package, this project adds bindings for UI libraries that make it possible to use it just like a regular html component, without worrying about layout-specific things.
Visually, this post from Figma Blog shows the difference really well:
Usage
With React
Step 1
Star this repo ❤️
Step 2
Install the package
pnpm add @squircle-js/react
Step 3
Add to your project
import { Squircle } from "@squircle-js/react";
const YourComponent = () => {
return (
<Squircle
cornerRadius={10}
cornerSmoothing={1}
className="p-4 bg-black text-white"
>
Squircle!
</Squircle>
);
};
Also, add a global component to ensure it still works when JavaScript is disabled.
// _app.tsx, or root-level layout.tsx
import { SquircleNoScript } from "@squircle-js/react";
...
<SquircleNoScript />
