📚 Description

Adds a ProgressGroup component, a progress bar split into multiple segments that add up to a total. This is the replacement for the Meter and MeterGroup components that were dropped in v3, and it's the component you want for a breakdown like disk usage per category or tokens per context slot.

Each item renders one segment sized by its share of max, plus an entry in the list below the bar with a leading icon or a colored dot:

<script setup lang="ts">
import type { ProgressGroupItem } from '@nuxt/ui'

const items: ProgressGroupItem[] = [
  { label: 'System', value: 24, color: 'neutral', icon: 'i-lucide-cog' },
  { label: 'Apps', value: 8, color: 'error', icon: 'i-lucide-app-window' },
  { label: 'Documents', value: 12, color: 'warning', icon: 'i-lucide-file' },
  { label: 'Multimedia', value: 42, color: 'success', icon: 'i-lucide-film' }
]
</script>

<template>
  <UProgressGroup :items="items" :max="128" status />
</template>

Props are items, max, status, size, color and orientation, with status, item, item-leading, item-label and item-trailing slots plus their per item slot variants.

A few details worth calling out:

• color accepts a theme color on the component or on any item, and also any CSS color value for palettes outside the theme. tv skips a color it doesn't know so the value is applied inline to the segment, the dot and the icon at once.
• The status tracks the end of the bar, and its size comes from a --percent variable instead of an inline style, so :ui="{ status: 'w-full' }" can turn it into a full width header.
• Values are clamped between 0 and max before reaching ProgressRoot, which would otherwise treat them as indeterminate and log an error.

The Progress commits are separate from the new component and stand on their own:

• color="neutral" painted the steps with text-inverted, the token for text sitting on an inverted background, so the active step label was drawn in the page background color and was invisible in both light and dark mode. The same mistake was in the new theme, this fixes both.
• color accepts any CSS color value too, so both components behave the same.
• The status size moved to the same --percent variable, so :ui="{ status: 'w-full' }" works there as well, and the vertical status now transitions its height instead of its width.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds the typed ProgressGroup component with segmented rendering, configurable theme variants, orientations, sizes, colors, statuses, slots, and accessibility labels. Exports and theme defaults include the component. Tests cover rendering and accessibility. Documentation, examples, playground controls, and component references describe the new API. Progress now accepts arbitrary CSS colors and applies them inline.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to d9353

The PR adds the new ProgressGroup component and is otherwise mergeable, but the migration guide still does not explain the replacement for MeterGroup, so users upgrading from v3 may miss the intended migration path.
