Svelte Avatar - Flowbite

Use the avatar component to show a visual representation of a user profile using an image element or SVG object based on multiple styles and sizes

The avatar component can be used as a visual identifier for a user profile on your website and you can use the examples from Flowbite to modify the styles and sizes of these components using the utility classes from Tailwind CSS.

Setup #

Import Avatar. If you are using the user dropdown, import Dropdown, DropdownHeader, DropdownItem, DropdownDivider. If you are using tooltip for avatar import Tooltip.

  • Svelte
<script>
  import { Avatar, Dropdown, DropdownHeader, DropdownItem, DropdownDivider, Tooltip } from "flowbite-svelte"
</script>

Default avatar #

Use this example to create a circle and rounded avatar on an image element.

  • Svelte
<div class="flex space-x-4">
  <Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-2.webp"/>
  <Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-2.webp" rounded/>
</div>

Bordered #

You can apply a border around the avatar component.

If you can use the ring-{color} class from Tailwind CSS to modify ring color.

  • Svelte
<Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-2.webp" border/>
<Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-2.webp" border class="ring-red-400 dark:ring-red-300"/>

Placeholder #

When there is no custom image available a placeholder is displayed.

  • Svelte
<Avatar />
<Avatar rounded />
<Avatar border />
<Avatar rounded border />

Placeholder initials #

This example can be used to show the initials of the user’s first and last name as a placeholder when no profile picture is available.

Avatar tooltip #

Use this example to show a tooltip when hovering over the avatar.

  • Svelte
<script>
  import {Avatar, Tooltip} from 'flowbite-svelte'
</script>
  <Avatar data-name="Jese Leos" rounded src="/images/profile-picture-1.webp"/>
  <Avatar data-name="Robert Gouth" rounded src="/images/profile-picture-2.webp"/>
  <Avatar data-name="Bonnie Green" rounded src="/images/profile-picture-3.webp"/>
  <Tooltip triggeredBy="[data-name]" on:show={e => name = e.target.dataset.name}>{name}</Tooltip>

Dot indicator #

Use a dot element relative to the avatar component as an indicator for the user (eg. online or offline status).

  • Svelte
<Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-3.webp" dot={{color:"red"}}/>
<Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-3.webp" dot={{placement: "top-right", color:"red"}} rounded />
<Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-5.webp" dot={{placement: "bottom-right", color:"green"}} />
<Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-5.webp" dot={{placement: "bottom-right"}} rounded />

<Avatar dot={{}}/>

Use this example if you want to stack a group of users by overlapping the avatar components.

<div class="flex mb-5">
<Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-1.webp" stacked/>
<Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-2.webp" stacked />

</div>
<div class="flex">
<Avatar src="/images/profile-picture-1.webp" stacked />

<Avatar stacked href="/" class="bg-gray-700 text-white hover:bg-gray-600 text-sm">+99</Avatar>
