Directory 1: people directory

A people directory: search across names, roles, teams and cities, department chips with live counts, a location filter, a grid and a compact list, each person with availability and their local time right now.

State

The normal view. Pick a state to see what the block shows while it loads, is empty or fails.

Open in v0 (opens in a new tab)

Installation

$ pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @ballmac/directory-1

Usage

Example: directory-1-demo.tsx
"use client"

import { Directory1 } from "@/components/ballmac/blocks/directory-1/directory-1"

export default function Directory1Demo() {
  return <Directory1 />
}

States

Pass state and the block does the rest: skeletons that match its layout, a clear empty message, an error you can retry, and announcements for screen readers.

  • Loading

    Skeleton cards under the real heading, announced as loading.

    state="loading"
  • Nobody listed

    Says people appear once added; emptyState sets the copy. A search with no match says so with Clear filters.

    state="empty" (or people={[]})
  • Could not load

    An alert with Try again (onRetry).

    state="error"

Automated checks find a subset of problems and do not replace testing with a screen reader and a keyboard in your own app. What they miss.

Dependencies

Use with AI

A people directory. <Directory1 people={[{ id, name, title, department, location, utcOffset: 1, email, pronouns, status: 'available' | 'away' | 'out' }]} now='2026-10-18T10:42:00Z' locale defaultView='grid' | 'list' onSelect />. Local times are worked out from now plus each utcOffset; pass now yourself, the block never reads the clock. Department chips and the location menu come from the data. With the shadcn MCP server set up (guide), ask your agent:

Add the Ballmac UI Directory 1: people directory (@ballmac/directory-1) to this project with the shadcn MCP, then use it where it fits.

Use it for

  • An internal company directory or a team page with filters
  • Remote teams that need to see where people are and what time it is for them

Not for

  • A reporting hierarchy (use orgchart-1)
  • A marketing team section with photos (use team-1)
