Mellow UI — animated React components with editorial aesthetics

Vol. 02 — A motion-first library
16 components

Components that move, quietly.

Motion-led primitives for builders who care about texture, timing, and the small theatre of an interface. Copy the source. Own it.

The point of view

Most interfaces shout. Mellow moves quietly texture, timing, and the small theatre of a cursor crossing a surface. One command writes the source into your repo. Read it. Patch it. Make it yours.

  1. I.

    Copy, don't install

    Every component ships as a shadcn registry item. One command writes the source into your repo — you own the file the moment you read it.

  2. II.

    Motion as language

    Built on motion/react and raw canvas. Scroll, hover, and mount triggers — orchestrated, not decorative. Reduced motion respected without exception.

  3. III.

    No version trap

    There is no @mellow/core package to pin. No breaking change to migrate. The code is yours, the patches are yours, the future is yours.

The collection

In motion.

Dither Spotlight

A cursor spotlight rendered as ordered halftone dots — printed light, not glassy glow.

02 / 06

Flow Field

Curl-noise strokes follow an invisible vector field. Move your cursor to part it.

03 / 06

Kinetic Wall

A wall of analog clock hands that align into letterforms, then dissolve.

04 / 06

Phosphor Sweep

A rotating beam ignites dots that fade like CRT phosphor decay.

05 / 06

Encrypted Text

Characters tumble through cipher glyphs before settling into the message.

06 / 06

Tactile Buttons

Depth and magnetism — button physics that make a click feel like a press.
