Mesh Orbs

BackgroundsAmbient

Mesh-gradient ambience: five large, breathing colour orbs with a fine print grain on top. Fills its parent; colours come from tokens.

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/mesh-orbs.tsx.

npx shadcn@latest add https://pastetaste.com/r/mesh-orbs.json
Dependenciesmotion@^12.23.0

Prompt

Install the pastetaste component "Mesh Orbs" (mesh-orbs) into this Next.js project and use it.

What it is: Mesh-gradient ambience: five large, breathing colour orbs with a fine print grain on top. Fills its parent; colours come from tokens.

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/mesh-orbs.json
   (it writes components/pastetaste/mesh-orbs.tsx; install any npm packages it reports: motion@^12.23.0).
2. Import it: import { MeshOrbs } from "@/components/pastetaste/mesh-orbs" (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):
- colors: string[] = var(--pt-orb-1…5) — Up to five colours: top-left, top-right, centre-bottom, bottom-right, bottom-left.
- blur: number = 110 — Blur radius in px.
- speed: number = 1 — 1 is one breath every ~22 s.
- grain: number = 0.07 — Grain opacity; 0 disables it.
- className: string — Extra classes on the wrapper.
- style: CSSProperties — Inline style overrides.

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