Ripple Effect

RippleEffect wraps any content in a clickable container that emits an expanding, fading ripple from the mouse-down position. It uses Motion for animation and supports customization of the ripple color, duration, and wrapper classes.

Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @bundui/ripple-effect-01

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

Usage

usage.tsx
import { RippleEffect } from "@/components/ripple-effect/ripple-effect";export function Example() {  return (    <RippleEffect>      <button type="button">Click me</button>    </RippleEffect>  );}
  • Enhance buttons and compact interactive controls with tactile pointer feedback.
  • Add visual interaction feedback to cards, links, or other mouse-interactive elements.
  • Use when a lightweight, decorative ripple animation fits an existing Tailwind-based interface.

Examples

Button with custom ripple color

Wrap a button and configure a darker ripple for a light surface.

button-with-custom-ripple-color.tsx
import { RippleEffect } from "@/components/ripple-effect/ripple-effect";export function CustomRippleButton() {  return (    <RippleEffect color="rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.18)" duration={0.6} className="rounded-lg">      <button type="button" className="rounded-lg bg-white px-5 py-3 text-black">        Add to cart      </button>    </RippleEffect>  );}

Ripple around a shadcn button

Use the component as a visual wrapper for a Button component.

ripple-around-a-shadcn-button.tsx
import { RippleEffect } from "@/components/ripple-effect/ripple-effect";import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";export function RippleAction() {  return (    <RippleEffect className="rounded-lg">      <Button size="lg">Click Me</Button>    </RippleEffect>  );}

Interactive card surface

Apply the ripple effect to a compact card-like action.

interactive-card-surface.tsx
import { RippleEffect } from "@/components/ripple-effect/ripple-effect";export function RippleCard() {  return (    <RippleEffect color="rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.35)" className="rounded-xl">      <button type="button" className="w-64 rounded-xl bg-slate-900 p-6 text-left text-white">        <span className="font-medium">View details</span>        <span className="mt-1 block text-sm text-slate-300">Explore this collection</span>      </button>    </RippleEffect>  );}

API reference

PropTypeDefaultDescription

colorstring"rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7)"Background color applied to each animated ripple.

classNamestring—Optional classes appended to the wrapper's built-in `relative inline-flex overflow-hidden rounded-lg` classes.

Accessibility

  • The component renders a plain `div` and does not provide a role, focus handling, or keyboard interaction by itself.
  • Place semantic interactive content such as a native `button` or link inside the wrapper when the surface is actionable.
  • The ripple is decorative and uses `pointer-events: none`, so it does not block interaction with the child content.
  • Because the effect is triggered by `onMouseDown`, it does not independently provide equivalent keyboard or touch feedback; ensure the child control remains usable without the animation.
  • Avoid relying on the ripple as the only indication of an action, and preserve sufficient text and focus-state contrast on the child element.
