Getting Started with the KendoReact Progress Bars

This guide provides essential information about using the KendoReact Progress Bars package—you will learn how to install the package and add a free React Progress Bars component to your project. The steps demonstrated in this guide are applicable to all KendoReact Progress Bars (free and premium).

Use React Progress Bars for FreeYou can use the free components from the React Progress Bars package in production—no sign-up or license required. Progress Bars are part of KendoReact, an enterprise-grade UI library with 120+ free and premium components. To test-drive premium components, start a 30-day trial.

Before You Begin

npm create vite@latest my-app -- --template react

This guide requires that you have basic knowledge of React and TypeScript, and that you have already created a blank React project.

You can speed up the development of your KendoReact application with the Kendo UI Template Wizard for Visual Studio Code.

Install the Components

npm i @progress/kendo-react-progressbars

Run these commands in the root of your React project to install the KendoReact Progress Bars package.

Import the Components

tsx

import { Progressbar } from '@progress/kendo-react-progressbars';

Place the import statements in the App component file (for example: src/App.tsx) for your project. Note that the steps for installing and importing all Progress Bars components are identical.

Use the Components

Using the free KendoReact ProgressBar component does not require a license, even in production. To work with the premium ChunkProgressBar component, you need a commercial license key or an active trial license key.

After installing the Progress Bars package and importing the components, add the <ProgressBar> tag to the App component file of your React project (for example, src/App.tsx).
tsx
```
<ProgressBar value={50} />
```
Build and run the application by typing the following command in the root folder of your project:
sh
```
npm run dev
```
Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to see the KendoReact ProgressBar component on the page.
