Letter Rise

TextAnimation

Headline that climbs out of a clipped line character by character or word by word when it scrolls into view. Words stay together, text stays readable for assistive tech.

Paste it into Claude Code: it installs the component, asks for your brand and content, and places it on the page you name.

Install

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

npx shadcn@latest add https://pastetaste.com/r/letter-rise.json

Prompt

Install the pastetaste component "Letter Rise" (letter-rise) into this Next.js project and use it.

What it is: Headline that climbs out of a clipped line character by character or word by word when it scrolls into view. Words stay together, text stays readable for assistive tech.

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/letter-rise.json
   (it writes components/pastetaste/letter-rise.tsx; install any npm packages it reports).
2. Import it: import { LetterRise } from "@/components/pastetaste/letter-rise" (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):
- text: string — Text to reveal.
- by: 'chars' | 'words' = 'chars' — Split granularity.
- stagger: number = 28 — Delay between neighbouring units in ms.
- duration: number = 0.75 — Settle time per unit in seconds.
- delay: number = 0 — Start delay in seconds.
- distance: number = 1.05 — Rise distance as a share of the line height.
- tilt: number = 6 — Starting rotation of each unit in degrees.
- repeat: boolean = false — Replay when the text re-enters the viewport.
- threshold: number = 0.35 — Visible fraction needed to start.
- as: 'span' | 'h1' | 'h2' | 'h3' | 'p' | 'div' = 'span' — Rendered element.

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