Eq Bars

Install

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

Install the pastetaste component "Eq Bars" (eq-bars) into this Next.js project and use it.

What it is: Animated equaliser bars for a now-playing or live indicator. Pure CSS on the compositor, staggered delays, pausable, server-component friendly.

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/eq-bars.json
   (it writes components/pastetaste/eq-bars.tsx; install any npm packages it reports).
2. Import it: import { EqBars } from "@/components/pastetaste/eq-bars" (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):
- bars: number = 4 — Number of bars.
- color: string = var(--pt-eq, currentColor) — Bar colour.
- height: number = 24 — Container height in px.
- width: number = 3 — Bar width in px.
- gap: number = 3 — Space between bars in px.
- speed: number = 1 — 1 is one second per cycle.
- paused: boolean = false — Freeze the bars at their resting heights.
- label: string — Accessible name; omitted means decorative.
- className: string — Extra classes on the wrapper.
- style: CSSProperties — Inline style overrides on the wrapper.

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