Frequently asked questions
How do I install the Depth Fade component?
Register the @cleverui registry in your components.json ("@cleverui": "https://cleverops.com.au/r/{name}.json"), then run `npx shadcn@latest add @cleverui/scroll-depth-fade`. 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 Depth Fade require?
Depth Fade uses motion on top of React and Tailwind CSS. You don't need to install it manually, the shadcn CLI resolves and installs npm dependencies automatically when you add the component.
Can I theme Depth Fade 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.
