Focus Stream

Install

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

Install the pastetaste component "Focus Stream" (focus-stream) into this Next.js project and use it.

What it is: A staggered column of photographs where the one at the centre of the screen is in focus: items sharpen, grow and show their caption crossing the middle and blur out as they leave, with a live counter.

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/focus-stream.json
   (it writes components/pastetaste/focus-stream.tsx; install any npm packages it reports).
2. Import it: import { FocusStream } from "@/components/pastetaste/focus-stream" (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):
- items: FocusItem[] = 6 sample items — { src, alt, title, meta?, aspect?, width?, offset?, position?, action? }. width and offset are percents of the column.
- header: ReactNode — Content of the sticky left panel; the live counter is added under it.
- onSelect: (index:number, item:FocusItem)=>void — Called when an item is clicked.
- blur: number = 6 — Maximum blur in px for out-of-focus photos.
- className / style: string / CSSProperties — On the root.

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