|
|
description: "Initial empty state and welcome message component"
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
`CopilotChatWelcomeScreen` is the default component displayed by [CopilotChat](/reference/copilot-chat) when there are no messages. It provides a welcoming introduction with an input field and optional suggestion chips.
|
|
|
|
## What is CopilotChatWelcomeScreen?
|
|
|
|
The CopilotChatWelcomeScreen component:
|
|
|
|
- Displays when the conversation is empty (no messages)
|
|
- Shows a customizable welcome message
|
|
- Includes the chat input for starting conversations
|
|
- Displays suggestion chips for quick actions
|
|
- Built on the [slot system](/reference/slot-system) for deep customization
|
|
|
|
## Component Architecture
|
|
|
|
CopilotChatWelcomeScreen provides a slot for the welcome message and receives input and suggestions as props:
|
|
|
|
```mermaid
|
|
graph LR
|
|
WS[CopilotChatWelcomeScreen] --> welcomeMessage
|
|
WS --> input[input prop]
|
|
WS --> suggestionView[suggestionView prop]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Slot Descriptions
|
|
|
|
| Slot/Prop | Description |
|
|
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `welcomeMessage` | The greeting text or component displayed at the top |
|
|
| `input` | The chat input component (passed as a prop) |
|
|
| `suggestionView` | Suggestion chips component (passed as a prop) |
|
|
|
|
## Basic Usage
|
|
|
|
Customize the welcome screen through the `welcomeScreen` prop on [CopilotChat](/reference/copilot-chat):
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<CopilotChat
|
|
welcomeScreen={{
|
|
className: "bg-gradient-to-b from-blue-50 to-white",
|
|
welcomeMessage: "text-2xl font-bold text-blue-900",
|
|
}}
|
|
/>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Customizing the Welcome Message
|
|
|
|
The simplest way to customize the welcome message is through labels:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<CopilotChat
|
|
labels={{
|
|
welcomeMessage: "Hello! I'm your AI assistant. How can I help you today?",
|
|
}}
|
|
/>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or style the welcome message component:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<CopilotChat
|
|
welcomeScreen={{
|
|
welcomeMessage: {
|
|
className:
|
|
"text-3xl font-bold bg-gradient-to-r from-blue-600 to-purple-600 bg-clip-text text-transparent",
|
|
},
|
|
}}
|
|
/>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Disabling the Welcome Screen
|
|
|
|
To skip the welcome screen and show an empty chat directly:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<CopilotChat welcomeScreen={false} />
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Slot Customization
|
|
|
|
CopilotChatWelcomeScreen uses the [slot system](/reference/slot-system). Each slot accepts four types of values:
|
|
|
|
1. **Tailwind class string** - Add or override CSS classes
|
|
2. **Props object** - Pass additional props to the default component
|
|
3. **Custom component** - Replace the component entirely
|
|
4. **Nested sub-slots** - Drill down to customize child components
|
|
|
|
### Welcome Message Customization
|
|
|
|
Style the welcome message:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
<CopilotChat
|
|
welcomeScreen={{
|
|
welcomeMessage: "text-4xl font-extrabold tracking-tight",
|
|
}}
|
|
/>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or with a custom component:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
function CustomWelcomeMessage() {
|
|
return (
|
|
<div className="text-center">
|
|
<img src="/logo.svg" alt="Logo" className="w-16 h-16 mx-auto mb-4" />
|
|
<h1 className="text-2xl font-bold">Welcome to AI Assistant</h1>
|
|
<p className="text-gray-500 mt-2">Ask me anything about your project</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
<CopilotChat
|
|
welcomeScreen={{
|
|
welcomeMessage: CustomWelcomeMessage,
|
|
}}
|
|
/>;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Replacing the Welcome Screen
|
|
|
|
To completely replace the welcome screen with your own component:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
import { CopilotChatView } from "@copilotkit/react-core";
|
|
|
|
function CustomWelcomeScreen({ input, suggestionView }) {
|
|
return (
|
|
<div className="flex flex-col items-center justify-center h-full bg-gradient-to-b from-indigo-50 to-white p-8">
|
|
<img src="/mascot.svg" alt="AI Mascot" className="w-32 h-32 mb-6" />
|
|
|
|
<h1 className="text-3xl font-bold text-gray-900 mb-2">Hi there!</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p className="text-gray-600 text-center max-w-md mb-8">
|
|

|
|
and much more. What would you like to explore?
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<div className="w-full max-w-2xl">{input}</div>
|
|
|
|
<div className="mt-6">{suggestionView}</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
<CopilotChat welcomeScreen={CustomWelcomeScreen} />;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Using the Render Function
|
|
|
|
For full layout control while keeping the default components:
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
function CustomWelcomeScreen(props) {
|
|
return (
|
|
<CopilotChatView.WelcomeScreen {...props}>
|
|
{({ welcomeMessage, input, suggestionView }) => (
|
|
<div className="flex flex-col lg:flex-row h-full">
|
|
<div className="lg:w-1/2 bg-indigo-600 text-white p-12 flex items-center justify-center">
|
|
<div className="max-w-md">
|
|
<h1 className="text-4xl font-bold mb-4">AI Assistant</h1>
|
|
<p className="text-indigo-200">
|
|
Your intelligent companion for coding, writing, and
|
|
problem-solving.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<div className="lg:w-1/2 p-12 flex flex-col items-center justify-center">
|
|
<div className="w-full max-w-md">
|
|
{welcomeMessage}
|
|
<div className="mt-8">{input}</div>
|
|
<div className="mt-6">{suggestionView}</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
)}
|
|
</CopilotChatView.WelcomeScreen>
|
|
);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
<CopilotChat welcomeScreen={CustomWelcomeScreen} />;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The render function receives:
|
|
|
|
| Property | Type | Description |
|
|
| ---------------- | -------------- | ------------------------------- |
|
|
| `welcomeMessage` | `ReactElement` | The rendered welcome message |
|
|
| `input` | `ReactElement` | The chat input component |
|
|
| `suggestionView` | `ReactElement` | The suggestions chips component |
|
|
|
|
