Change One Thing

Keep the default widget and swap one small piece at a time.

Support is built for small edits. Start with styling, then swap one component, and keep the rest of the widget working as-is.

Use this when

you want the widget live fast
you need the bubble or first screen to feel more like your product
you want safe overrides without rebuilding the router or conversation UI

Smallest working change

import { Support } from "@cossistant/react";
 
<Support
  classNames={{
    trigger: "bg-black text-white",
    content: "border-neutral-200 shadow-2xl",
  }}
  slotProps={{
    content: {
      className: "border border-neutral-200 shadow-2xl",
    },
  }}
/>;

Use classNames for the built-in trigger and content. Use slotProps when you want to pass extra presentational props to built-in parts.

The default widget also exposes stable styling hooks:

data-slot
data-state
data-page

[data-slot="trigger"][data-state="open"] {
  transform: scale(1.02);
}
 
[data-slot="content"] {
  backdrop-filter: blur(12px);
}

Bubble example 1

Use slots.trigger when the launcher is the only thing that should change.

import { Support, type SupportTriggerSlotProps } from "@cossistant/react";
import * as React from "react";
 
function mergeClassNames(...classes: Array<string | undefined>) {
  return classes.filter(Boolean).join(" ");
}
 
const ClassicBubble = React.forwardRef<HTMLButtonElement, SupportTriggerSlotProps>(
  function ClassicBubbleTrigger(
    { className, isOpen, isTyping: _isTyping, toggle, unreadCount, ...props },
    ref
  ) {
    return (
      <button
        {...props}
        className={mergeClassNames(
          "relative flex size-14 items-center justify-center border border-black bg-black font-medium text-white text-sm shadow-xl transition-transform hover:scale-[1.02]",
          className
        )}
        onClick={toggle}
        ref={ref}
        type="button"
      >
        {isOpen ? "Close" : "Chat"}
        {unreadCount > 0 ? (
          <span className="-right-1 -top-1 absolute flex size-5 items-center justify-center border border-white bg-orange-500 text-[11px]">
            {unreadCount}
          </span>
        ) : null}
      </button>
    );
  }
);
 
<Support slots={{ trigger: ClassicBubble }} />;

Bubble example 2

The same slot can feel more like an in-product button instead of a floating chat bubble.

import { Support, type SupportTriggerSlotProps } from "@cossistant/react";
import * as React from "react";
 
function mergeClassNames(...classes: Array<string | undefined>) {
  return classes.filter(Boolean).join(" ");
}
 
const PillBubble = React.forwardRef<HTMLButtonElement, SupportTriggerSlotProps>(
  function PillBubble(
    {
      className,
      isOpen: _isOpen,
      isTyping,
      unreadCount: _unreadCount,
      toggle,
      ...props
    },
    ref
  ) {
    return (
      <button
        {...props}
        className={mergeClassNames(
          "flex h-12 items-center gap-2 border border-black bg-white px-4 font-medium text-black text-sm shadow-xl transition-transform hover:scale-[1.01]",
          className
        )}
        onClick={toggle}
        ref={ref}
        type="button"
      >
        <span className="size-2 bg-orange-500" />
        <span>{isTyping ? "Support is typing..." : "Open support"}</span>
      </button>
    );
  }
);
 
<Support slots={{ trigger: PillBubble }} />;

Replace the first screen

Keep the default conversation flow and change only the home page.

import { Support, type SupportHomePageSlotProps } from "@cossistant/react";
 
function CustomHomePage({
  className,
  openConversationHistory,
  quickOptions,
  startConversation,
  website,
}: SupportHomePageSlotProps) {
  return (
    <div className={className}>
      <h2>{website?.name}</h2>
      <p>Rewrite the first screen while keeping the default conversation flow.</p>
 
      {quickOptions.map((option) => (
        <button key={option} onClick={() => startConversation(option)} type="button">
          {option}
        </button>
      ))}
 
      <button onClick={openConversationHistory} type="button">
        View past conversations
      </button>
    </div>
  );
}
 
<Support
  slotProps={{
    content: {
      className: "border shadow-2xl",
    },
  }}
  slots={{ homePage: CustomHomePage }}
/>;
