Pulsating Border

A multi-source perimeter light that travels around a rounded frame, layering a precise core, soft bloom and drifting atmospheric spill without covering its content plane.

WHAT IT DOES

A multi-source perimeter light that travels around a rounded frame, layering a precise core, soft bloom and drifting atmospheric spill without covering its content plane.

BEST FOR
  • Framed media
  • Vector studies
  • Focused product surfaces
KEY FEATURES
  • Three independent light sources travel one continuous rounded perimeter
  • Core edge, bloom and atmospheric spill are rendered as separate layers
  • Pixel-space sizing keeps the border attached during responsive changes
  • Content-safe inner plane remains stable across every glow setting
  • Every control maps directly to this component's independent renderer contract
  • Full-size and compact previews use the same implementation and behavior
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.

  • Three independent light sources travel one continuous rounded perimeter
  • Core edge, bloom and atmospheric spill are rendered as separate layers
  • Pixel-space sizing keeps the border attached during responsive changes
  • Content-safe inner plane remains stable across every glow setting
  • Every control maps directly to this component's independent renderer contract
  • Full-size and compact previews use the same implementation and behavior

SOURCE STATUS

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