WHAT IT DOES

A field of modular panels opens, tilts and subdivides around the pointer while maintaining a strict responsive grid and stable outer frame.

BEST FOR
  • Product moments
  • Spatial storytelling
  • Interactive identity systems
KEY FEATURES
  • Modules retain exact responsive cell bounds
  • Pressure changes tilt, aperture and subdivision separately
  • Outer frame remains stable during maximum deformation
  • A component-specific renderer and control contract—not a palette swap of another release
  • Compact and full previews share one visibility-aware production renderer
PERFORMANCE

Adaptive sampling, capped DPR and visibility-based suspension keep the renderer predictable. Test density on low-power mobile hardware before increasing it.

INTERACTION

Pointer and touch coordinates are container-scoped; offscreen renderers stop work and pixel ratio is capped.

ACCESSIBILITY

The visual canvas is decorative by default. Pair it with a semantic heading or description, and reduced motion holds a stable rendered frame.

BEHAVIOR

Built to move without taking over.

  • Modules retain exact responsive cell bounds
  • Pressure changes tilt, aperture and subdivision separately
  • Outer frame remains stable during maximum deformation
  • A component-specific renderer and control contract—not a palette swap of another release
  • Compact and full previews share one visibility-aware production renderer

SOURCE STATUS

Portable implementation included in the verified MIT open-source package.
