        headline="Set on the curve"
        description="The headline is typeset on a live SVG course, scroll feeds arc length, the ink draws itself beneath the glyphs, and the whole take plays in reverse without a seam. Survey ticks and the IN/OUT stations expose the construction."
      />

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Text on Path Scrub component?

Register the @cleverui registry in your components.json ("@cleverui": "https://cleverops.com.au/r/{name}.json"), then run `npx shadcn@latest add @cleverui/text-on-path-scrub`. The shadcn CLI copies the source into your project, you own the code from that point. You can also copy the source directly from this page.

What dependencies does Text on Path Scrub require?

Text on Path Scrub has no npm dependencies beyond React and Tailwind CSS itself, so there is nothing extra to install or keep updated.

Can I theme Text on Path Scrub to match my brand?

Yes. The component is styled entirely with Tailwind utilities over standard design tokens (primary, background, muted, border), so it inherits your existing shadcn/ui theme automatically. Change your CSS variables and the component follows, no source edits needed for palette, radius, or fonts.
