Introduction

You can display an empty state in your schema to communicate that there is no content to show yet, and to guide the user towards the next action. An empty state requires a heading, but can also have a description(), icon() and footer(): 
use Filament\Actions\Action;
use Filament\Schemas\Components\EmptyState;
use Filament\Support\Icons\Heroicon;

EmptyState::make('No users yet')
    ->description('Get started by creating a new user.')
    ->icon(Heroicon::OutlinedUser)
    ->footer([
        Action::make('createUser')
            ->icon(Heroicon::Plus),
    ])

​
Adding an icon to the empty state

You may add an icon to the empty state using the icon() method: 
use Filament\Schemas\Components\EmptyState;
use Filament\Support\Icons\Heroicon;

EmptyState::make('No users yet')
    ->description('Get started by creating a new user.')
    ->icon(Heroicon::OutlinedUser)
You may insert actions and any other schema component (usually prime components) into the footer of an empty state by passing an array of components to the footer() method: 
use Filament\Actions\Action;
use Filament\Schemas\Components\EmptyState;

EmptyState::make('No users yet')
    ->description('Get started by creating a new user.')
    ->footer([
        Action::make('createUser')
            ->icon(Heroicon::Plus),
    ])

​
Removing the empty state container

By default, empty states have a background color, shadow and border. You may remove these styles and just render the content of the empty state without the container using contained(false): 
use Filament\Schemas\Components\EmptyState;

EmptyState::make('No users yet')
    ->description('Get started by creating a new user.')
    ->contained(false)
