# Slider

<p class="description">Sliders allow users to make selections from a range of values.</p>

[Sliders](https://material.io/design/components/sliders.html) reflect a range of values along a bar, from which users may select a single value. They are ideal for adjusting settings such as volume, brightness, or applying image filters.

## Continuous sliders

Continuous sliders allow users to select a value along a subjective range.

## Discrete sliders

Discrete sliders can be adjusted to a specific value by referencing its value indicator. By order of demos:

1. You can generate a mark for each step with `marks={true}`.
2. You can have custom marks by providing a rich array to the `marks` prop.
3. You can restrict the selectable values to those provided with the `marks` prop with `step={null}`.
4. You can force the thumb label to be always visible with `valueLabelDisplay="on"`.

## Доступность

The component handles most of the work necessary to make it accessible. However, you need to make sure that:

- The slider, as a whole, has a label (`aria-label` or `aria-labelledby` prop).
- Each thumb has a user-friendly name for its current value. This is not required if the value matches the semantics of the label. You can change the name with the `getAriaValueText` or `aria-valuetext` prop.
