- Motion
- Scale-in numerical stat overlay
Feature Teaser
Exclusive Components
“(No spoken dialogue — click and pop UI sounds)”
- On screen
- Components shadcn doesn't have. Navigation rails, toolbars, FAB menus, time pickers and more, ready to install.
- Camera
- Horizontal and vertical interactive preview browsing
- Motion
- Card lift, spring-expand modal, and clock dial interactions
Problem Agitation
Zero-Bloat CLI Install
“(No spoken dialogue — terminal typing audio)”

Motion design primitives
Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the dev-tool-showcase template.
MorphingBlob
Squircle container morphing border radii smoothly using spring physics
+ Code construction recipe
Use spring() to interpolate SVG path control points or CSS borderRadius parameters across frame deltas.
TypewriterCodeLine
Sequential character typing with blinking terminal cursor
+ Code construction recipe
Slice target text string based on interpolate(frame, [0, 40], [0, text.length]) and toggle cursor opacity on modulo frames.
ThemePaletteShift
Global CSS custom property color transition across components simultaneously
+ Code construction recipe
Animate CSS hex color values with interpolateColors() and inject via inline style wrapper.
