Recently, I added the FAB Button present at the bottom left position, providing links to my social accounts and i am very happy with the final result. I used Material UI for this and damn it is so easy and awesome. In this article i am going to describe all the steps that i took to create this beautiful FAB button.

Steps:

1) Install Dependencies

Run the below command to install all the dependencies.

yarn add @material-ui/core @material-ui/icons @material-ui/lab

2) Create A New Functional Component 

-----------------------------------------
||src/components/social-tray/social.tsx||
-----------------------------------------

import React from 'react';

export default function SpeedDialTooltipOpen() {
  return (
    <div>hello</div>
  )
}

3) Create Material UI Styles For The FAB Button 

----------------------------------------------
||src/components/social-tray/social.tsx||
----------------------------------------------

import React from 'react';
import { makeStyles, createStyles, Theme } from '@material-ui/core/styles';

const useStyles = makeStyles((theme: Theme) =>
  createStyles({
    backdrop: {
      zIndex: 1,
      color: '#fff',
    },
    root: {
      height: 0,
      flexGrow: 1,
    },
    speedDial: {
      position: 'fixed',
      bottom: theme.spacing(2),
      left: theme.spacing(2),
    },
  })
);

export default function SpeedDialTooltipOpen() {
  const classes = useStyles();
  return (
    <div>hello</div>
  )
}

4) Add SpeedDial Material UI Component 

----------------------------------------------
||src/components/social-tray/social.tsx||
----------------------------------------------

import React from 'react';
import { makeStyles, createStyles, Theme } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
import SpeedDial from '@material-ui/lab/SpeedDial';
import FavoriteIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Favorite';
import FavoriteBorderIcon from '@material-ui/icons/FavoriteBorder';

const useStyles = makeStyles((theme: Theme) =>
  createStyles({
    backdrop: {
      zIndex: 1,
      color: '#fff',
    },
    root: {
      height: 0,
      flexGrow: 1,
    },
    speedDial: {
      position: 'fixed',
      bottom: theme.spacing(2),
      left: theme.spacing(2),
    },
  })
);

export default function SpeedDialTooltipOpen() {
  const classes = useStyles();
  const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
  const [icon, setIcon] = React.useState(<FavoriteBorderIcon />);

  const handleOpen = () => {
    setOpen(true);
    setIcon(<FavoriteIcon style={{ fill: '#d24769' }} />);
  };


  const handleClose = () => {
    setOpen(false);
    setIcon(<FavoriteBorderIcon />);
  };

  return (
    <div className={classes.root}>
      <SpeedDial
        ariaLabel="SpeedDial tooltip example"
        className={classes.speedDial}
        icon={icon}
        onClose={handleClose}
        onOpen={handleOpen}
        open={open}
        FabProps={{
          color: 'default',
          size: 'small',
        }}
      />
    </div>
  )
}

5) Add SpeedDialAction Material UI Component 

----------------------------------------------
||src/components/social-tray/social.tsx||
----------------------------------------------

import React from 'react';
import { makeStyles, createStyles, Theme } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
import SpeedDial from '@material-ui/lab/SpeedDial';
import SpeedDialAction from '@material-ui/lab/SpeedDialAction';
import FavoriteIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Favorite';
import FavoriteBorderIcon from '@material-ui/icons/FavoriteBorder';
import FacebookIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Facebook';
import TwitterIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Twitter';
import InstagramIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Instagram';
import LinkedInIcon from '@material-ui/icons/LinkedIn';

const useStyles = makeStyles((theme: Theme) =>
  createStyles({
    backdrop: {
      zIndex: 1,
      color: '#fff',
    },
    root: {
      height: 0,
      flexGrow: 1,
    },
    speedDial: {
      position: 'fixed',
      bottom: theme.spacing(2),
      left: theme.spacing(2),
    },
  })
);

export default function SpeedDialTooltipOpen() {
  const classes = useStyles();
  const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
  const [icon, setIcon] = React.useState(<FavoriteBorderIcon />);

  const SocialLinks: any = {
    Facebook: 'https://www.facebook.com/webbrainsmedia',
    Instagram: 'https://www.instagram.com/webbrainsmedia/',
    Twitter: 'https://twitter.com/jainsanmati846',
    LinkedIn: 'https://www.linkedin.com/in/sjcodebook/',
  };

  const actions = [
    {
      icon: (
        <FacebookIcon
          style={{ fill: '#3b5998' }}
          onClick={() => handleClick('Facebook')}
        />
      ),
      name: 'Facebook',
    },
    {
      icon: (
        <TwitterIcon
          style={{ fill: '#00acee' }}
          onClick={() => handleClick('Twitter')}
        />
      ),
      name: 'Twitter',
    },
    {
      icon: (
        <InstagramIcon
          style={{ fill: '#3f729b' }}
          onClick={() => handleClick('Instagram')}
        />
      ),
      name: 'Instagram',
    },
    {
      icon: (
        <LinkedInIcon
          style={{ fill: '#0e76a8' }}
          onClick={() => handleClick('LinkedIn')}
        />
      ),
      name: 'LinkedIn',
    },
  ];

  const handleClick = (network: string) => {
    handleClose();
    window.open(SocialLinks[network], '_blank');
  };

  const handleOpen = () => {
    setOpen(true);
    setIcon(<FavoriteIcon style={{ fill: '#d24769' }} />);
  };


  const handleClose = () => {
    setOpen(false);
    setIcon(<FavoriteBorderIcon />);
  };

  return (
    <div className={classes.root}>
      <SpeedDial
        ariaLabel="SpeedDial tooltip example"
        className={classes.speedDial}
        icon={icon}
        onClose={handleClose}
        onOpen={handleOpen}
        open={open}
        FabProps={{
          color: 'default',
          size: 'small',
        }}
      >
        {actions.map((action) => (
          <SpeedDialAction
            id={action.name}
            key={action.name}
            icon={action.icon}
            tooltipTitle={action.name}
            tooltipPlacement="right"
          />
        ))}
      </SpeedDial>
    </div>
  )
}

6) Finally, Add Backdrop Material UI Component 

----------------------------------------------
||src/components/social-tray/social.tsx||
----------------------------------------------

import React from 'react';
import { makeStyles, createStyles, Theme } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
import Backdrop from '@material-ui/core/Backdrop';
import SpeedDial from '@material-ui/lab/SpeedDial';
import SpeedDialAction from '@material-ui/lab/SpeedDialAction';
import FavoriteIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Favorite';
import FavoriteBorderIcon from '@material-ui/icons/FavoriteBorder';
import FacebookIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Facebook';
import TwitterIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Twitter';
import InstagramIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Instagram';
import LinkedInIcon from '@material-ui/icons/LinkedIn';

const useStyles = makeStyles((theme: Theme) =>
  createStyles({
    backdrop: {
      zIndex: 1,
      color: '#fff',
    },
    root: {
      height: 0,
      flexGrow: 1,
    },
    speedDial: {
      position: 'fixed',
      bottom: theme.spacing(2),
      left: theme.spacing(2),
    },
  })
);

export default function SpeedDialTooltipOpen() {
  const classes = useStyles();
  const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
  const [icon, setIcon] = React.useState(<FavoriteBorderIcon />);

  const SocialLinks: any = {
    Facebook: 'https://www.facebook.com/webbrainsmedia',
    Instagram: 'https://www.instagram.com/webbrainsmedia/',
    Twitter: 'https://twitter.com/jainsanmati846',
    LinkedIn: 'https://www.linkedin.com/in/sjcodebook/',
  };

  const actions = [
    {
      icon: (
        <FacebookIcon
          style={{ fill: '#3b5998' }}
          onClick={() => handleClick('Facebook')}
        />
      ),
      name: 'Facebook',
    },
    {
      icon: (
        <TwitterIcon
          style={{ fill: '#00acee' }}
          onClick={() => handleClick('Twitter')}
        />
      ),
      name: 'Twitter',
    },
    {
      icon: (
        <InstagramIcon
          style={{ fill: '#3f729b' }}
          onClick={() => handleClick('Instagram')}
        />
      ),
      name: 'Instagram',
    },
    {
      icon: (
        <LinkedInIcon
          style={{ fill: '#0e76a8' }}
          onClick={() => handleClick('LinkedIn')}
        />
      ),
      name: 'LinkedIn',
    },
  ];

  const handleClick = (network: string) => {
    handleClose();
    window.open(SocialLinks[network], '_blank');
  };

  const handleOpen = () => {
    setOpen(true);
    setIcon(<FavoriteIcon style={{ fill: '#d24769' }} />);
  };


  const handleClose = () => {
    setOpen(false);
    setIcon(<FavoriteBorderIcon />);
  };

  return (
    <div className={classes.root}>
      <Backdrop open={open} className={classes.backdrop} />
      <SpeedDial
        ariaLabel="SpeedDial tooltip example"
        className={classes.speedDial}
        icon={icon}
        onClose={handleClose}
        onOpen={handleOpen}
        open={open}
        FabProps={{
          color: 'default',
          size: 'small',
        }}
      >
        {actions.map((action) => (
          <SpeedDialAction
            id={action.name}
            key={action.name}
            icon={action.icon}
            tooltipTitle={action.name}
            tooltipPlacement="right"
          />
        ))}
      </SpeedDial>
    </div>
  )
}

Your FAB component is now completed. To use it, import the component and place it in your main layout component like this =>

----------------------------------
||src/components/layout.tsx||
----------------------------------

import SpeedDialTooltipOpen from '../components/social-tray/social';

type LayoutProps = {
  children: React.ReactNode;
};

const Layout: React.FunctionComponent<LayoutProps> = ({ children }) => {
  return (
    <ThemeProvider theme={theme}>
      <>
        <ResetCss />
        <Sticky top={0} innerZ={9999} activeClass="nav-sticky">
          <Navbar />
        </Sticky>

        {children}

        <Newsletter />
        <Footer>
          <Link to={'/privacy-policy'} activeClassName="active-link">
            {'Privacy Policy'}
          </Link>
          ||
          <Link to={'/disclaimer'} activeClassName="active-link">
            {'Disclaimer'}
          </Link>
          ||
          <Link to={'/terms'} activeClassName="active-link">
            {'Terms Of Use'}
          </Link>
          <br />
          Copyright &copy; {new Date().getFullYear()}
          <a href="https://webbrainsmedia.com"> WebBrainsMedia</a>
        </Footer>
        <ScrollToTop
          showUnder={300}
          duration={700}
          easing="easeInOutCubic"
          style={{ bottom: 30, right: 20 }}
        >
          <ScrollUpButton />
        </ScrollToTop>
        <SpeedDialTooltipOpen />
      </>
    </ThemeProvider>
  );
};

export default Layout;
