title: Server Components
description: Learn how to use Chakra UI with React Server Components.
---
React Server Components is a new feature in React that allows you to build
components that render on the server and return UI to the client without hydration.
Client components are still server-rendered but hydrated on the client. Learn
more about
[Server component patterns](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/rendering/composition-patterns)
Chakra UI components are client components because they rely on `useState`,
`useRef` and `useState` which are not available in server components.
:::info
**TLDR:** By default, Chakra UI components can be used with React Server
Components without adding the 'use client' directive.
:::
## Usage
Here's an example of how to use Chakra UI components with React Server
Components in Next.js
```jsx [app/page.tsx]
import { Heading } from "@chakra-ui/react"
import fs from "node:fs"
export default async function Page() {
const content = fs.readFileSync("path/to/file.md", "utf-8")
return <Heading as="h1">{content}</Heading>
}
```
## Chakra Factory
When using the `chakra()` factory function, use the `use client` directive and
move the component to a dedicated file.
```jsx [blog-post.tsx]
"use client"
import { chakra } from "@chakra-ui/react"
export const BlogPost = chakra("div", {
base: {
color: "red",
},
variants: {
primary: {
true: { color: "blue" },
false: { color: "green" },
},
},
})
```
Then import the component in your page server component
```jsx [blogs/page.tsx]
import { BlogPost } from "./blog-post"
export default async function Page() {
const content = fs.readFileSync("path/to/file.md", "utf-8")
return <BlogPost>{content}</BlogPost>
}
```
## Hooks
When importing hooks from Chakra UI, use the `use client` directive
```jsx
"use client"
import { useBreakpointValue } from "@chakra-ui/react"
export function MyComponent() {
const value = useBreakpointValue({ base: "mobile", md: "desktop" })
return <div>{value}</div>
}
```
## Render Props
When using render props, use the `use client` directive
```jsx
"use client"
import { ProgressContext } from "@chakra-ui/react"
export function MyComponent() {
return <ProgressContext>{({ value }) => <div>{value}</div>}</ProgressContext>
}
```
