Watch Button

Install

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

Install the pastetaste component "Watch Button" (watch-button) into this Next.js project and use it.

What it is: Call-to-action button with two eyes that follow the pointer, blink, squint on hover and shut when pressed; on touch they follow your last tap and the scroll.

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/watch-button.json
   (it writes components/pastetaste/watch-button.tsx; install any npm packages it reports).
2. Import it: import { WatchButton } from "@/components/pastetaste/watch-button" (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):
- children: ReactNode — The label. It is the button's accessible name; the eyes are decoration.
- href: string — Renders a link instead of a button. All other button or anchor attributes pass through.
- tone: 'ink' | 'paper' = 'ink' — Black pill with pale eyes, or white pill with dark eyes.
- accent: string = var(--pt-accent, #ff4a2e) — The one accent: the iris and the keyboard focus ring.
- size: 'md' | 'lg' = 'md' — 56 px or 72 px tall.

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