Tension Web

A spring-like radial textile spans beyond the frame, with bowed connecting silk, authored irregularity and a pointer pressure zone that shifts intersections before they settle.

WHAT IT DOES

A spring-like radial textile spans beyond the frame, with bowed connecting silk, authored irregularity and a pointer pressure zone that shifts intersections before they settle.

BEST FOR
  • Product moments
  • Spatial storytelling
  • Interactive identity systems
KEY FEATURES
  • The outer ring is pinned beyond the corners so the web never reads as a closed badge
  • Quadratic ring segments bow toward their neighboring strand intersections
  • Deterministic irregularity redraws the same authored textile every frame
  • Pointer pressure shifts geometry locally and leaves all untouched strands stable
  • 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.

  • The outer ring is pinned beyond the corners so the web never reads as a closed badge
  • Quadratic ring segments bow toward their neighboring strand intersections
  • Deterministic irregularity redraws the same authored textile every frame
  • Pointer pressure shifts geometry locally and leaves all untouched strands stable
  • 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.
