Tree View - Getting Started

Get started with the Tree View. Install the package, configure your application and start using the components.

Installation

Using your favorite package manager, install @mui/x-tree-view:

npm install @mui/x-tree-view

The Tree View package has a peer dependency on @mui/material. If you are not already using it in your project, you can install it with:

npm install @mui/material @emotion/react @emotion/styled

Please note that react and react-dom are peer dependencies too:

"peerDependencies": {
  "react": "^17.0.0 || ^18.0.0",
  "react-dom": "^17.0.0 || ^18.0.0"
},

Style engine

Material UI is using Emotion as a styling engine by default. If you want to use styled-components instead, run:

npm install @mui/styled-engine-sc styled-components

Take a look at the Styled engine guide for more information about how to configure styled-components as the style engine.

Render your first component

To make sure that everything is set up correctly, try rendering a simple TreeView component:

Applications
Documents

<TreeView
  aria-label="file system navigator"
  defaultCollapseIcon={<ExpandMoreIcon />}
  defaultExpandIcon={<ChevronRightIcon />}
  sx={{ height: 240, flexGrow: 1, maxWidth: 400, overflowY: 'auto' }}
>
  <TreeItem nodeId="1" label="Applications">
    <TreeItem nodeId="2" label="Calendar" />
  </TreeItem>
  <TreeItem nodeId="5" label="Documents">
    <TreeItem nodeId="10" label="OSS" />
    <TreeItem nodeId="6" label="MUI">
      <TreeItem nodeId="8" label="index.js" />
    </TreeItem>
  </TreeItem>
</TreeView>
