+# Snackbar
+
+Snackbars provide lightweight feedback about an operation by showing a brief message at the bottom of the screen. Snackbars can contain an action.
+
+<!-- example -->
+```jsx
+import { Button, Snackbar } from 'react-toolbox';
+
+class SnackbarTest extends React.Component {
+  handleClick = () => {
+    this.refs.snackbar.show();
+  };
+
+  handleSnackbarClick = () => {
+    this.refs.snackbar.hide();
+  };
+
+  render () {
+    return (
+      <section>
+        <Button label='Show Snackbar' kind='raised' onClick={this.handleClick} />
+        <Snackbar
+          action='Nice'
+          icon='question-answer'
+          label='A new developer started using React Toolbox'
+          onClick={this.handleSnackbarClick}
+          ref='snackbar'
+          type='accept'
+      />
+      </section>
+    );
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Properties
+
+| Name          | Type    | Default   | Description|
+|:-----|:-----|:-----|:-----|
+| `action`  | `String` |   | Label for the action component inside the Snackbar.|
+| `className` | `String`  | `''`      | Additional class name to provide custom styling.|
+| `icon` | `String`  |       | String key for an icon displayed in left side of the snackbar.|
+| `label` | `String`  |       | Text to display in the content.|
+| `onClick` | `Function`  |       | Callback function that will be called when the button action is clicked.|
+| `timeout` | `Number`  |       | Amount of time after the Snackbar will be automatically hidden.|
+| `type` | `String`  |       | Indicates the action type. Can be `accept`, `warning` or `cancel`|
+
+## Methods
+
+The Snackbar, in a similar way to the Dialog and Drawer holds state to check whether it's being displayed or not. It exposes methods to hide and show it manually:
+
+- `hide` used to hide the Snackbar.
+- `show` used to show the Snackbar.
