Tilt Effect

TiltEffect is a client-side React wrapper that applies a spring-smoothed 3D tilt to its children based on pointer position. It resets the rotation when the pointer leaves and measures its own size to calculate the tilt.

Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @bundui/tilt-effect

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

Usage

usage.tsx
import { TiltEffect } from "@/components/tilt-effect/tilt-effect";export function ProductTiltCard() {  return (    <TiltEffect>      <div className="rounded-xl border bg-card p-6 shadow-sm">        Product card content      </div>    </TiltEffect>  );}
  • Add subtle interactive depth to cards, product tiles, image panels, or other content blocks.
  • Use for hover-driven visual emphasis on desktop pointer interfaces.
  • Pair with existing styled components when you want the child’s appearance to remain fully customizable.
  • Avoid using it as the only interaction cue for essential actions or information.

Examples

Product card

Adds perspective motion to a styled product card while preserving the card’s own layout and appearance.

product-card.tsx
import { TiltEffect } from "@/components/tilt-effect/tilt-effect";export function ProductCardExample() {  return (    <TiltEffect>      <article className="w-72 overflow-hidden rounded-xl border bg-card shadow-sm">        <div className="aspect-square bg-muted" />        <div className="space-y-1 p-4">          <h2 className="font-semibold">Canvas Backpack</h2>          <p className="text-sm text-muted-foreground">$84.00</p>        </div>      </article>    </TiltEffect>  );}

Custom tilt intensity

Uses tiltFactor and perspective to create a more restrained tilt for a promotional panel.

custom-tilt-intensity.tsx
import { TiltEffect } from "@/components/tilt-effect/tilt-effect";export function PromoPanelExample() {  return (    <TiltEffect tiltFactor={6} perspective={1400}>      <section className="rounded-2xl bg-primary p-8 text-primary-foreground">        <h2 className="text-2xl font-semibold">Build faster</h2>        <p className="mt-2 text-primary-foreground/80">Ship your next idea today.</p>      </section>    </TiltEffect>  );}

Image presentation

Wraps an image in the tilt effect for an interactive visual preview.

image-presentation.tsx
import Image from "next/image";import { TiltEffect } from "@/components/tilt-effect/tilt-effect";export function ImageTiltExample() {  return (    <TiltEffect transitionDuration={0.7}>      <Image        src="/images/featured.jpg"        alt="Featured landscape"        width={640}        height={400}        className="rounded-lg object-cover"      />    </TiltEffect>  );}

API reference

PropTypeDefaultDescription
childrenReact.ReactNode—Required content rendered inside the tilt wrapper.
tiltFactornumber12Maximum rotation amount applied on the X and Y axes, in degrees. The value is applied in opposite directions depending on pointer position.
perspectivenumber1000CSS perspective value applied to the outer motion element.
transitionDurationnumber0.5Duration value passed to the inner Motion transition configuration.

Accessibility

  • The component does not add semantic roles, labels, keyboard handlers, or focus styles; the child should provide its own semantic HTML and accessible name.
  • Do not communicate essential information through tilt alone, because the effect is pointer-driven and may not be available to keyboard or touch users.
  • Provide meaningful alt text for informative images wrapped by TiltEffect; use an empty alt attribute for purely decorative images.
  • Ensure interactive children remain keyboard accessible and retain visible focus indicators.
