Default props

You can define default props for every Mantine component by setting theme.components. These props will be used by default by all components in your application unless they are overridden by component props:

import { MantineProvider, Button, Group, createTheme } from '@mantine/core';

const theme = createTheme({
  components: {
    Button: Button.extend({
      defaultProps: {
        color: 'cyan',
        variant: 'outline',
      },
    }),
  },
});

function Demo() {
  return (
    <MantineProvider theme={theme}>
      <Group>
        <Button>Default button</Button>
        <Button color="red" variant="filled">
          Button with props
        </Button>
      </Group>
    </MantineProvider>
  );
}

Default props with MantineThemeProvider

You can also use MantineThemeProvider to define default props for a part of your application:

import {
  Button,
  createTheme,
  MantineThemeProvider,
} from '@mantine/core';

const theme = createTheme({
  components: {
    Button: Button.extend({
      defaultProps: {
        color: 'cyan',
        variant: 'outline',
      },
    }),
  },
});

function Demo() {
  return (
    <>
      <MantineThemeProvider theme={theme}>
        {/* Part of the app with theme */}
      </MantineThemeProvider>

      {/* Another part without theme */}
    </>
  );
}

Default props for compound components

Some components like Menu and Tabs have associated compound components: Menu.Item, Tabs.List, etc. You can add default props to these components by omitting the dot from the component name:

import {
  createTheme,
  MantineProvider,
  Menu,
  Tabs,
} from '@mantine/core';

const theme = createTheme({
  components: {
    MenuItem: Menu.Item.extend({
      defaultProps: { color: 'red' },
    }),

    TabsList: Tabs.List.extend({
      defaultProps: {
        justify: 'center',
      },
    }),
  },
});

function Demo() {
  return (
    <MantineProvider theme={theme}>
      {/* Your app here */}
    </MantineProvider>
  );
}

useProps hook

You can use the useProps hook to add default props support to any custom component. useProps accepts three arguments:

component name (string) – it is used to connect the component with the theme
defaultProps – default props on the component level – these props are used when default props are not defined on the theme
props – props passed to the component

Default color

Provider color

Prop color

import { useProps, MantineThemeProvider, createTheme } from '@mantine/core';

interface CustomComponentProps {
  color?: string;
  children?: React.ReactNode;
}

const defaultProps = {
  color: 'red',
} satisfies Partial<CustomComponentProps>;

function CustomComponent(props: CustomComponentProps) {
  const { color, children } = useProps('CustomComponent', defaultProps, props);
  return <div style={{ color }}>{children}</div>;
}

const theme = createTheme({
  components: {
    CustomComponent: {
      defaultProps: {
        color: 'green',
      },
    },
  },
});

function Demo() {
  return (
    <div>
      <CustomComponent>Default color</CustomComponent>

      <MantineThemeProvider theme={theme}>
        <CustomComponent>Provider color</CustomComponent>
        <CustomComponent color="blue">Prop color</CustomComponent>
      </MantineThemeProvider>
    </div>
  );
}

withProps function

All Mantine components have a withProps static function that can be used to add default props to the component:

import { IMaskInput } from 'react-imask';
import { Button, InputBase } from '@mantine/core';

const LinkButton = Button.withProps({
  component: 'a',
  target: '_blank',
  rel: 'noreferrer',
  variant: 'subtle',
});

const PhoneInput = InputBase.withProps({
  mask: '+7 (000) 000-0000',
  component: IMaskInput,
  label: 'Your phone number',
  placeholder: 'Your phone number',
});

function Demo() {
  return (
    <>
      {/* You can pass additional props to components created with `withProps` */}
      <LinkButton href="https://mantine.dev">
        Mantine website
      </LinkButton>

      {/* Component props override default props defined in `withProps` */}
      <PhoneInput placeholder="Personal phone" />
    </>
  );
}
