How do I install Chat Conversation?

Run npx shadcn@latest add @aceternity/chat-conversation in your terminal. Before installing, add the Aceternity Pro registry to your components.json and set your API token as the ACETERNITY_PRO_TOKEN environment variable. The CLI automatically installs all required dependencies including Tailwind CSS plugins and Framer Motion.

Is Chat Conversation responsive and accessible?

Yes. The component is fully responsive across mobile, tablet, and desktop breakpoints. It uses semantic HTML elements, proper heading hierarchy, and accessible color contrast ratios. Touch targets are appropriately sized for mobile interactions, and all interactive elements are keyboard-navigable.

Can I customize the colors, fonts, and layout?

Everything is built with Tailwind CSS utility classes and Framer Motion animations. You can change colors, spacing, typography, border radius, shadows, and animation timing directly in the JSX — no separate CSS files to manage. The component uses your project's Tailwind theme, so it automatically adapts to your design system.

What frameworks does this work with?

Chat Conversation is built for React and Next.js (App Router and Pages Router). It requires Tailwind CSS v4 and Framer Motion. It works with any React-based framework including Remix, Gatsby, and Vite — just ensure Tailwind CSS and Framer Motion are configured in your project.

Chat Conversation

An animated chat interface with message bubbles and avatars. Messages appear sequentially with staggered animations when the component comes into view.

Hey! Are you free for a quick call?

Sure, give me 5 minutes!

Sounds good 👍

I'm not sure if I can make it.

A chat conversation illustration with animated message bubbles. Each message includes an avatar and text bubble that animate in sequence when the component scrolls into view.

Messages alternate between left and right alignment to simulate a real conversation. The animation uses staggered delays so each message appears after the previous one, creating a natural flow.

Uses the useInView hook from Motion to trigger animations only when visible. Avatars scale in first, followed by the message bubble sliding in from the side.

Works well for messaging apps, customer support features, or any product that involves real-time communication.
