Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @aceternity/3d-marquee

Requires @aceternity in the registries of your components.json (shadcn adds official directory namespaces automatically).

Usage

usage.tsx
import { ThreeDMarquee } from "@/components/ui/3d-marquee";<ThreeDMarquee  images={[    "/images/project-1.jpg",    "/images/project-2.jpg",    "/images/project-3.jpg",    "/images/project-4.jpg",  ]}/>
  • Showcase portfolios, product photography, editorial imagery, or visual case studies.
  • Create an eye-catching hero background or landing-page section with many images.
  • Add motion and depth to a gallery where decorative presentation is more important than per-image controls.
  • Use as a visual break between content sections or behind supporting marketing copy.

Examples

Photography portfolio

Display a curated set of photography thumbnails in a visually prominent portfolio section.

photography-portfolio.tsx
import { ThreeDMarquee } from "@/components/ui/3d-marquee";<ThreeDMarquee  images={[    "/photos/portrait.jpg",    "/photos/architecture.jpg",    "/photos/street.jpg",    "/photos/landscape.jpg",    "/photos/studio.jpg",    "/photos/editorial.jpg",  ]}  className="bg-slate-100"/>

Product showcase

Use product imagery as an animated visual centerpiece on a commerce or marketing page.

product-showcase.tsx
import { ThreeDMarquee } from "@/components/ui/3d-marquee";<ThreeDMarquee  images={[    "/products/chair-front.jpg",    "/products/chair-side.jpg",    "/products/chair-detail.jpg",    "/products/chair-room.jpg",  ]}  className="bg-neutral-50"/>

Brand campaign gallery

Present campaign artwork or launch assets with custom sizing and background styling.

brand-campaign-gallery.tsx
import { ThreeDMarquee } from "@/components/ui/3d-marquee";<ThreeDMarquee  images={[    "/campaign/01.jpg",    "/campaign/02.jpg",    "/campaign/03.jpg",    "/campaign/04.jpg",    "/campaign/05.jpg",    "/campaign/06.jpg",    "/campaign/07.jpg",    "/campaign/08.jpg",  ]}  className="bg-black"/>

API reference

PropTypeDefaultDescription
imagesstring[]—Required array of image source strings. The component splits the array into four columns and uses each string as an image src.
classNamestring—Optional additional CSS class names merged onto the outer marquee container with cn().

Accessibility

  • The component renders native img elements with width and height attributes, helping reserve layout space.
  • Image alt text is generated as "Image 1", "Image 2", and so on within each column; meaningful alternative text cannot be supplied through the component API.
  • The marquee is continuously animated and does not implement a prefers-reduced-motion fallback. Consider avoiding it for users who may be sensitive to motion or wrapping it in an application-level reduced-motion strategy.
  • Images are decorative in presentation but remain exposed to assistive technology through their generated alt text; provide appropriate source content and consider adapting the component if the images are purely decorative.
  • The animated images are not links or controls, so they do not provide keyboard interaction; use a separate accessible gallery or linked image list when the visuals need to be actionable.
