Cursor Lantern

Install

Or by hand, in a Next.js project with shadcn set up. It writes components/pastetaste/cursor-lantern.tsx.

Install the pastetaste component "Cursor Lantern" (cursor-lantern) into this Next.js project and use it.

What it is: Dim the lights: the page goes dark except a soft pool of light around the pointer. One radial gradient, no re-render on move, hidden on touch screens.

Before you place it, ask me (one short message, in my language; "skip" = sensible default): which page and section it goes in, my brand colour (hex), the text, labels or images it should show, and whether I want my logo or my own copy in the demo content. Then:

Steps:
1. If the project has no components.json, run: npx shadcn@latest init -y -d. Then run: npx shadcn@latest add https://pastetaste.com/r/cursor-lantern.json
   (it writes components/pastetaste/cursor-lantern.tsx; install any npm packages it reports).
2. Import it: import { CursorLantern } from "@/components/pastetaste/cursor-lantern" (check the file for the exact named export).
3. Put it where it fits on the page I name, keep the rest of the page untouched, and pass props for my colours instead of editing the installed file.
4. It does not depend on Tailwind; colours come from CSS variables (--pt-*) or props.
5. It supports prefers-reduced-motion with a still state; do not remove it.

Props (all optional unless the type has no default):
- on: boolean = true — Lights down (true) or up (false); fades over one second.
- radius: number = 300 — Radius of the pool of light in px.
- fixed: boolean = true — Cover the viewport, or only the nearest positioned ancestor when false.
- dim: number = 0.98 — Darkness outside the pool, 0 to 1.
- className: string — Extra classes on the overlay.
- style: CSSProperties — Inline style overrides on the overlay.

Then run the dev server, check it in the browser at desktop and mobile width, and tell me the page URL.
