asChild replaces the component's own element with the single child you pass and merges its props and ref onto that child. It is how a Button becomes a router link without nesting an anchor inside a button.
The child has to cooperate. It must be a single element, it must spread the props it receives onto the DOM node, and it must accept a ref. A wrapper component that only reads the props it knows about swallows the event handlers and the accessibility attributes, so the trigger renders and does nothing, with no error.
In React 19 a function component can accept ref as an ordinary prop, so forwardRef is no longer needed for this. Nesting two asChild layers works but each level must forward, and a fragment as the child never does.
