Usage

Examples

Default AI tools card

Render the complete preconfigured card block.

default-ai-tools-card.tsx
import CardDemo from "@/components/cards-demo-3";export default function IntegrationsCard() {  return <CardDemo />;}

Custom card composition

Compose the exported card primitives with custom content and a skeleton area without the gradient mask.

custom-card-composition.tsx
import {  Card,  CardDescription,  CardSkeletonContainer,  CardTitle,} from "@/components/cards-demo-3";export default function CustomCard() {  return (    <Card>      <CardSkeletonContainer showGradient={false} className="bg-slate-950">        <div className="flex h-full items-center justify-center text-white">          Live integrations        </div>      </CardSkeletonContainer>      <CardTitle>AI workspace</CardTitle>      <CardDescription>        Connect the tools your team uses every day.      </CardDescription>    </Card>  );}

Custom visual styling

Override the container, title, and description styles with className props.

custom-visual-styling.tsx
import {  Card,  CardDescription,  CardTitle,} from "@/components/cards-demo-3";export default function StyledCard() {  return (    <Card className="max-w-md bg-indigo-950">      <CardTitle className="text-indigo-100">Connected tools</CardTitle>      <CardDescription className="text-indigo-200">        A curated set of services for your workflow.      </CardDescription>    </Card>  );}

Accessibility

  • The default card is presentational and does not provide an interactive control or link.
  • The logo SVGs do not define accessible labels or aria-hidden attributes; add appropriate labeling or hide them from assistive technology when using the logos decoratively.
  • The animated beam, icon motion, and sparkle effects should respect reduced-motion preferences if this block is used in an accessibility-sensitive context; the source does not currently implement a reduced-motion media query.
  • Verify text and icon contrast against both the light and dark themes, especially when overriding the supplied colors.
  • Use heading context appropriately when placing the h3-based CardTitle within a larger page heading hierarchy.
