Product Reveal
Direct-on-Page Wireframing
“(No spoken dialogue — Ambient electronic score continues with pizzicato synths and sub-bass.)”
- On screen
- Suggested Resize 104 x 34
- Camera
- Wider shot revealing a blank webpage canvas. Camera subtly tracks the cursor as it interacts with elements.
- Motion
- Elements appear with a soft fade-in and scale-up. A bounding box with resize handles animates around a UI component, demonstrating direct manipulation.
Feature Teaser
Intuitive Element Manipulation
“(No spoken dialogue — The electronic score maintains its rhythm, with a subtle riser around 0:08.000.)”
- On screen
- Suggested Resize 104 x 34 Suggested Move
- Camera
- Camera remains focused on the webpage, following the cursor's path as it drags and drops elements.
- Motion
- A bezier curve path animation illustrates the 'suggested move' of an element. Elements snap into place with a subtle spring effect. The 'Suggested Resize' box remains visible in the corner.

Motion design primitives
Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the direct-manipulation-ui-showcase template.
InteractiveBoundingBox
A blue bounding box with resize handles appears around a UI element, displaying dimensions. It animates to show resizing and repositioning.
+ Code construction recipe
Use `interpolate` for scaling and positioning of the box and text. Implement `spring` for the snap-to-grid behavior of elements. SVG paths can draw the resize handles and connecting lines.
BezierPathFollow
A blue bezier curve animates to show the suggested path of a dragged UI element, with a 'Suggested Move' label appearing along the path.
+ Code construction recipe
Utilize `SVGPathElement` for drawing the curve. Animate a small circle or arrow along the path using `getPointAtLength` and `interpolate` for position and rotation. Text labels can follow the path with `textPath`.
ContextualModalSlide
A dark, rounded rectangular modal slides up from the bottom of the screen, revealing text and interactive menu items.
+ Code construction recipe
Employ `interpolate` for the Y-position and opacity of the modal. Menu item highlights can use `withSequence` and `spring` for a subtle hover effect. Text can fade in with a slight delay.

Objective
A new AI-powered code refactoring tool that allows developers to visually drag and drop code blocks to reorganize functions.How the recipe adapts
The 'InteractiveBoundingBox' primitive would be adapted to highlight code blocks, showing suggested refactoring dimensions. 'BezierPathFollow' would illustrate the movement of code blocks between functions, with 'Suggested Refactor' labels. The 'ContextualModalSlide' would be used for an AI-generated refactoring suggestion menu, allowing developers to accept or modify changes. The background would feature a subtle code editor theme gradient, and the typography would remain a clean Grotesque Sans-serif for code comments and UI elements.Remix blueprint · direct-manipulation-ui-showcase
