Examples

With form

Dialogs work well with form fields when you need a confirmation:

Edit profile

<Dialog>
  <DialogTrigger render={<Button variant="outline" />}>
Edit profile
</DialogTrigger>
  <DialogContent>
    <DialogHeader>
      <DialogTitle>Edit profile</DialogTitle>
      <DialogDescription>
        Make changes to your profile here. Click save when you are done.
      </DialogDescription>
    </DialogHeader>
    <div className="grid gap-4">
      <Input placeholder="Name" />
      <Input placeholder="Email" type="email" />
    </div>
    <DialogFooter>
      <DialogClose render={<Button type="submit" />}>
Save changes
</DialogClose>
    </DialogFooter>
  </DialogContent>
</Dialog>

Without built-in close

Set showCloseButton= on DialogContent to hide the built-in X button and provide your own:

Open small modal

<Dialog>
  <DialogTrigger render={<Button variant="outline" />}>
Open small modal
</DialogTrigger>
  <DialogContent showCloseButton={false} className="max-w-sm">
    <DialogHeader>
      <DialogTitle>Look, just a small modal</DialogTitle>
      <DialogDescription>
        You can hide the built-in close button and add your own.
      </DialogDescription>
    </DialogHeader>
    <DialogFooter>
      <DialogClose render={<Button variant="ghost" />}>
Close
</DialogClose>
    </DialogFooter>
  </DialogContent>
</Dialog>
