List page

The full-bleed tool: header, 28px toolbar, a grid or board that scrolls inside, and a totals footer.

What it's for#

The list page is a full-bleed tool for working through many records of one kind: find them, sort them, change them in bulk and open one.

It fills the viewport and never scrolls the window. The header, toolbar and footer stay put; the grid or board between them is the one region that scrolls. Because the grid is the page, the visible title lives in the header's breadcrumb and the page's h1 is screen-reader text. If people read the page more than they work in it, it is a document page.

Routes built on the list page
RouteWhat it lists
/dealsDeals as a board by stage or a table, with a pipeline stat row and totals.
/companiesCompanies with open pipeline in the footer.
/peoplePeople with verified emails counted in the footer.
/ticketsTickets by saved view, the one list that loads through Data state.
/tasksTasks grouped by due date.
/listsSaved lists of records.

Live composition#

Cedarline's deals at 1280px. Switch views, search, turn on the stage filter, change the row height under Display, select rows to raise the action bar, or switch to the board.

View tabs, the filter menu, sort and display menus live in apps/web/src/components/records/toolbar, not in packages/canon, so the composition draws a minimal view tab strip and plain buttons in their place. The board here is static; the product's board is Kanban, with drag and drop between stages.

Anatomy#

Seven parts stacked in one full-height column. Only the fifth scrolls.

  1. App header. Breadcrumbs carry the visible title; heading renders the h1 as screen-reader text. Actions hold the layout switch and the view's one filled button.
  2. View tabs. 28px Body Dense pills with counts in 12px Slate Meta. A Well Gray fill slides to the active view on a 0.3s spring with no bounce. The row scrolls and fades its clipped edge.
  3. Toolbar controls. Search, filter, sort and display at 28px on the right of the same Toolbar row. Below 640px they wrap to their own row and hide their labels.
  4. Filter chips. A row of active Filter chips, 28px with a 6% indigo tint and a 22% inset ring, then Clear all and Save as view.
  5. Grid or board. A Data grid with a sticky 32px header, 36px rows and a pinned first column, or a Kanban board of 60% Well Gray columns.
  6. Footer. Sticky, 36px, counts and totals in 12px tabular figures, rendered through the grid's footer so it pins to the bottom of the scroll region.
  7. Action bar. Raised by selection, bottom center. The count, ghost actions, a destructive tint for Delete, and a clear button. See Action bar.

Responsive behavior#

A list page keeps its shape at every width. The toolbar wraps and the grid scrolls sideways; nothing turns into cards.

From 1024px most columns fit. The grid is still the only thing that scrolls; the header, toolbar and footer never move.

List page at each width
WidthWhat changes
390pxThe toolbar's controls wrap to a full-width row and show icons only (max-sm:sr-only on labels). The grid scrolls sideways under the pinned first column, which casts its edge shadow once scrolled.
768pxOne toolbar row with labels. The sidebar becomes a rail.
1024pxMost columns fit; hidden columns come back through Display.
1440pxEvery column fits. The tool still fills the viewport and never centers in 72rem.

States#

The grid owns loading, empty, no results and error. The header, toolbar and footer stay usable through all of them.

States by region
RegionStates it owns
View tabsActive, with a count per view. Switching views clears the selection.
ToolbarActive filters show as chips; an active filter button takes the indigo tint and ring.
GridLoading as a SkeletonTable, empty with the first action, no results with Clear filters, error with Retry. Rows have hover, selected (6% indigo) and active states.
FooterCounts and totals follow the filtered rows, not the whole table.
Action barHidden at zero, entering on a spring from 12px below. Destructive actions confirm and then offer Undo.

The grid's states

Every list page wraps its grid in Data state so loading, empty and error are drawn in the grid's place. The footer stays.

Deals, companies and people read from the store synchronously and draw no loading or error state today. Tickets is the reference: DataState with useMockQuery, a list skeleton and errorTitle.

  • min-h-0 on every flex child between the column and the grid, or the grid grows instead of scrolling.
  • Put the footer in the grid's footer prop so it sticks to the bottom of the scroll region and scrolls sideways with nothing.
  • Clear the selection when the view, layout or filters change, so the action bar never acts on rows that aren't visible.

Rules that apply#

The Scroll Edge Rule

Clipped content shows its edge. Horizontal tab and view rows fade the clipped side over 2rem, and the last pinned grid column casts its edge shadow only once the grid scrolls sideways.

The Tabular Figures Rule

Every number that changes or gets compared (amounts, counts, percentages, times, credits) is set in tabular figures, and numeric columns align right.

The One Filled Button Rule

Each view has at most one filled indigo button, the action the view exists for. Everything else is outline, secondary, ghost, link or a destructive tint. In a stack of proposals, only the expanded one shows its filled button.

The Label-Beside-Color Rule

Status is never color alone. A dot, tint or ring always travels with a text label (On track, At risk, Running, Passed), so the state reads in grayscale.

Do and don't#

Do. Let the grid be the only thing that scrolls, between a fixed toolbar and footer.
Don't. Let the whole page scroll so the toolbar and totals leave the screen with the first rows.

Do. Put counts and totals in the 36px footer in tabular figures.

Don't. Stack hero-metric cards above the grid to show the same totals.
Do. Keep the visible title in the breadcrumb and pass heading so the page still has one h1.
Don't. Add a Page title above the toolbar. It pushes the grid down and repeats the breadcrumb.
