Kinetic Type Wall

Editorial kinetic type wall for React, outline echoes of the headline drift in alternating directions while one inked row carries the accent word. Tailwind-token themed; hover eases it to a halt.

Annotate Callouts

Inline annotation system, marked phrases carry numbered mono superscripts wired to margin notes that reveal as each mark scrolls into view. Editorial footnotes, live on the page.

Compositor's Case

Type set from a visible case, sorts fly from their compartments, land mirrored in the composing stick, and one proof pull flips the React headline readable. Tailwind-token letterpress craft.

Dot Matrix Print

The headline prints as a dot-matrix raster, a carriage sweeps once and canvas dots sized by ink density pop in column by column. React and Tailwind tokens via probes; one accent word in primary.

Frottage Rubbing

A graphite rubbing over hidden relief, crayon passes sweep the sheet and the React headline surfaces where pigment catches. Canvas text effect themed by Tailwind token probes.

Ink Bleed

Letters develop like ink on wet paper, each glyph starts as a soft bleed and contracts to crisp edges, neighbouring bleeds wicking together mid-pass. One development, then stillness.

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Redline Proof 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-redline`. 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 Redline Proof require?

Redline Proof 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 Redline Proof 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.
