Torch Reveal

Install

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

Install the pastetaste component "Torch Reveal" (torch-reveal) into this Next.js project and use it.

What it is: An image hidden in the dark and uncovered by a cursor torch: a radial mask follows the pointer, over a faint base layer.

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/torch-reveal.json
   (it writes components/pastetaste/torch-reveal.tsx; install any npm packages it reports).
2. Import it: import { TorchReveal } from "@/components/pastetaste/torch-reveal" (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):
- src: string — Image URL.
- alt: string = '' — Alt text of the revealed image.
- radius: number = 380 — Torch reach in px.
- baseOpacity: number = 0.08 — Visibility with no cursor.
- revealOpacity: number = 0.85 — Opacity of the revealed layer.
- blend: CSSProperties["mixBlendMode"] = 'lighten' — Blend mode of the revealed layer.
- children: ReactNode — Overlay content.
- className: string — Extra classes on the root.
- 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.
