Summary

The default Table leaned on the accent scale for its frame, header band and row background, so it looked tinted with the accent colour and lost its borders entirely when no accent was set (see the companion fix for the accent default). Reported by a Rad UI user whose dashboard table had no header borders.

The recipe now uses the neutral surface, border and text aliases:

  • framed panel (border-default, panel-radius-md, surface-panel)
  • header band on surface-subtle with a bottom border, small semibold labels in text-secondary, bottom-aligned
  • row dividers on border-soft, hover highlight on surface-hover, tabular figures
  • prefers-reduced-motion guard for the hover and resize-handle transitions

New props:

  • align (start | center | end) on Table.Cell and Table.ColumnCellHeader, emitted as data-align, for numeric columns
  • size (small | medium | large) and variant (surface | ghost) on Table.Root, emitted as data-size / data-variant; the resolved default variant is always emitted

Docs: API tables for the new props (plus the previously undocumented resizable and resizeHandleVisibility), and an "Alignment and density" example. Minor changeset.

Verification

Full Jest (1709), tsc, stylelint, Clarity audit unchanged at 215 findings, check:api-surface, docs boundary and a full docs build all pass. Rendered in both appearances at small, medium, large and ghost.

Update

The docs part (API table rows and the alignment/density example) moved to draft #2270, because the docs examples type-check against the published @radui/ui and the new props do not exist there yet. This PR is library-only now. The remaining "Build docs" failure is the Playwright runner problem fixed in #2271.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added table size options: small, medium, and large.
    • Added surface and ghost table variants.
    • Added start, center, and end alignment options for cells and column headers.
    • Updated table styling with neutral colors, improved spacing, hover states, and accessibility-friendly reduced-motion behavior.

The default Table leaned on the accent scale for its frame, header
band and row background, so it looked tinted with an accent colour and
lost its borders entirely without one. The recipe now uses the surface,
border and text aliases: a framed panel, a header band with a bottom
border and small semibold labels, row dividers, a hover highlight and
tabular figures. Cells and headers take align="end" for numeric
columns, Root takes size (small, medium, large) and variant (surface,
ghost). Docs get an alignment and density example and the new props.

Walkthrough

The table adds typed alignment props for cells and column headers, plus size and variant props on the root. The Clarity stylesheet uses neutral table tokens and adds size, ghost, alignment, hover, and reduced-motion rules. Tests cover the new attributes and styling selectors.

Changes: Table styling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Table props and attributes
src/components/ui/Table/fragments/TableCell.tsx, src/components/ui/Table/fragments/TableColumnCellHeader.tsx, src/components/ui/Table/fragments/TableRoot.tsx, src/components/ui/Table/Table.tsx
Cells and column headers accept constrained align values and expose them through data-align. The root accepts size and variant, defaults variant to surface, and renders table metadata attributes. The module re-exports the new types.
Clarity styles and validation
src/components/ui/Table/table.clarity.scss, src/components/ui/Table/tests/Table.test.tsx, .changeset/table-clarity-polish.md
Clarity styles use neutral table tokens and support size, ghost, alignment, hover, divider, and reduced-motion rules. Tests cover the new props and styling selectors. The changeset documents the update.

Existing tables using native alignment values may need changes to compile or retain their alignment. Preserve compatibility or provide breaking-change migration guidance before release.

The docs examples type-check against the published package, so the
new align, size and variant props are documented in a separate PR that
merges after release.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve existing native alignment values.

Existing Table.Cell align="right" usage passed align to the <td>. The new prop type rejects "right", and the new destructuring removes it from the DOM for JavaScript consumers. Table.ColumnCellHeader has the same regression at Line 10 and Line 19. Preserve legacy values and map them to the new styling, or release this as a breaking API change with migration guidance.
