title: Hybrid Mode
---
import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs';
import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem';
:::info
Currently Hybrid Mode is only available when using the React usage approach. Hybrid Mode is not available in the JavaScript-only (vanilla) integration.
:::
## Introduction
Sidepanel can run alongside the DocSearch Modal through what we call "Hybrid Mode." When a user initiates an Ask AI action from within
the DocSearch Modal, such as submitting a prompt or selecting an AI-related suggestion, the interface automatically transitions into the Sidepanel for
the continuation of the conversation.
## Set up
To set up the Hybrid Mode experience, you will need the following:
- [DocSearch Modal][1] packages installed
- Sidepanel Component package installed
The Sidepanel Component package can be installed as follows:
<Tabs>
<TabItem value="npm">
```bash
npm install @docsearch/sidepanel
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="yarn">
```bash
yarn add @docsearch/sidepanel
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="pnpm">
```bash
pnpm add @docsearch/sidepanel
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="bun">
```bash
bun add @docsearch/sidepanel
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
> Or using your package manager of choice
## Implementation
Once everything is installed, you can set up Hybrid Mode as such:
```tsx
import { DocSearch } from '@docsearch/core';
import { DocSearchButton, DocSearchModal } from '@docsearch/modal';
import { SidepanelButton, Sidepanel } from '@docsearch/sidepanel';
import '@docsearch/css/dist/style.css';
import '@docsearch/css/dist/sidepanel.css';
function HybridMode() {
return (
<DocSearch>
<DocSearchButton />
<DocSearchModal
indexName="YOUR_INDEX_NAME"
appId="YOUR_APP_ID"
apiKey="YOUR_SEARCH_API_KEY"
askAi="YOUR_ASSISTANT_ID" // Or configuration object
/>
<SidepanelButton />
<Sidepanel
indexName="YOUR_INDEX_NAME"
appId="YOUR_APP_ID"
apiKey="YOUR_SEARCH_API_KEY"
assistantId="YOUR_ASSISTANT_ID"
/>
</DocSearch>
);
}
```
There is no manual opt-in for Hybrid Mode to work. When both the Modal and Sidepanel are rendered inside the same `<DocSearch>` context, Hybrid Mode is enabled automatically. No additional configuration is required.
