## API Reference

### Slider

Root component. Styled wrapper for `Slider.Root` from Base UI with default min/max values and edge-aligned thumbs.

| Prop  | Type     | Default | Description                                      |
| ----- | -------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| `min` | `number` | `0`     | Minimum value of the slider                      |
| `max` | `number` | `100`   | Maximum value of the slider                      |

Note: The component sets `thumbAlignment="edge"` by default, which aligns thumbs to the edge of the track rather than centering them.

### SliderValue

Displays the current value. Styled wrapper for `Slider.Value` from Base UI.

## Examples

For accessible labelling and validation, prefer using the `Field` component to wrap checkboxes. See the related example: [Slider field](/ui/docs/components/field#slider-field).
