Save Indicator

Forms

About

A small inline status readout for a form or document that shows whether changes are saved, saving, unsaved, or failed to save, with a live relative "last saved" timestamp and inline save-now/retry actions.

Built with React and Tailwind. Copy the prompt and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor or Lovable: your agent adds Save Indicator to your project and fits it to your theme.

Code

How Save Indicator is used: the demo's code. The component's own source comes with a free account.

Usage.tsx

"use client";

import { SaveIndicator } from "@/components/ui/save-indicator";
import { useState } from "react";

export default function SaveIndicatorDirtyDemo() {
  const [state, setState] = useState<"dirty" | "saving" | "saved">("dirty");
  const [lastSavedAt] = useState(() => new Date(Date.now() - 12 * 60 * 1000));

  function handleSaveNow() {
    setState("saving");
    setTimeout(() => setState("saved"), 1200);
  }

  return (
    <div className="flex min-h-[220px] w-full items-center justify-center bg-background p-8">
      <div className="w-80 rounded-xl border border-border bg-card p-4 shadow-sm">
        <p className="text-sm font-semibold text-card-foreground">
