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.

Shatter Settle

The set headline fractures into glyph shards, rotation, drift, depth, then every shard flies home and the line re-sets to perfect type. It departs and returns, exactly once.

Variable Pulse

A weight wave travels the headline via variable-font axes, glyphs swell and relax as it passes, and the pointer presses local weight into the line like pressure on wet type.

Baseline Wave

A wave travels the baseline once, characters lift and settle as it passes, like a breeze crossing the line. One pass, then stillness.

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.

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Scatter Assemble Text 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-scatter-assemble`. 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 Scatter Assemble Text require?

Scatter Assemble Text 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 Scatter Assemble Text 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.
