Proximity Bento

Install

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

Install the pastetaste component "Proximity Bento" (proximity-bento) into this Next.js project and use it.

What it is: A bento grid whose cards light up with the pointer's distance: a wash inside and a glow along the border only. Lighting is written to CSS variables, no re-renders.

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/proximity-bento.json
   (it writes components/pastetaste/proximity-bento.tsx; install any npm packages it reports).
2. Import it: import { ProximityBento } from "@/components/pastetaste/proximity-bento" (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):
- columns: number = 4 — Columns on a wide grid; folds to 2 and 1 on narrower containers.
- rowHeight: number = 170 — Minimum height of one grid row in px.
- gap: number = 14 — Gap between cards in px.
- reach: number = 260 — How far from a card edge the pointer still lights it, in px.
- glow: string = '#c8ff3b' — Light colour.
- radius: number = 18 — Card corner radius in px.
- roam: boolean = true — A ghost light drifts over the grid while the pointer is idle.
- (card) cols: number = 1 — ProximityBentoCard: columns spanned, clamped to the current column count.
- (card) rows: number = 1 — ProximityBentoCard: rows spanned.

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