Split Flap

Install

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

Install the pastetaste component "Split Flap" (split-flap) into this Next.js project and use it.

What it is: Departure-board lettering: each cell flips through the alphabet to its glyph, cells settle left to right and the board cycles words.

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/split-flap.json
   (it writes components/pastetaste/split-flap.tsx; install any npm packages it reports).
2. Import it: import { SplitFlap } from "@/components/pastetaste/split-flap" (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):
- words: string[] = required — Words to cycle through. Unsupported characters render as blanks.
- cells: number = longest word — Number of cells.
- interval: number = 2.6 — Seconds each word holds.
- flip: number = 70 — Milliseconds per flip.
- cellStyle: CSSProperties — Style applied to every cell.

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