Examples

Three SVG logos

The installed registry example uses Backlight to wrap a horizontal row of three colorful inline SVG logos.

three-svg-logos.tsx
import { Backlight } from "@/registry/magicui/backlight"export default function BacklightSVGDemo() {  return (    <Backlight blur={5}>      <div className="flex max-w-lg gap-16">        <svg aria-hidden="true" className="h-16 w-16" viewBox="0 0 256 256" fill="none">          <circle cx="128" cy="128" r="128" fill="#EF786F" />        </svg>        <svg aria-hidden="true" className="h-16 w-16" viewBox="0 0 256 256" fill="none">          <circle cx="128" cy="128" r="96" fill="#4285F4" />        </svg>        <svg aria-hidden="true" className="h-16 w-16" viewBox="0 0 256 256" fill="none">          <circle cx="128" cy="128" r="96" fill="#F3B01C" />        </svg>      </div>    </Backlight>  )}

Custom blur strength

Increase the numeric blur value to create a softer, more diffuse glow around a graphic.

custom-blur-strength.tsx
import { Backlight } from "@/registry/magicui/backlight"export default function SoftBacklight() {  return (    <Backlight blur={12}>      <div className="rounded-xl bg-background p-8">        <svg aria-hidden="true" className="h-20 w-20" viewBox="0 0 80 80" fill="none">          <circle cx="40" cy="40" r="32" fill="#9E7AFF" />        </svg>      </div>    </Backlight>  )}

Backlight with a custom class

Use the optional className prop to style the Backlight wrapper while keeping the child artwork separate.

backlight-with-a-custom-class.tsx
import { Backlight } from "@/registry/magicui/backlight"export default function StyledBacklight() {  return (    <Backlight className="rounded-2xl p-6" blur={5}>      <div className="text-center text-sm font-medium">Brand showcase</div>    </Backlight>  )}

API reference

Accessibility

  • The provided SVG artwork has no accessible labels or titles; treat the logos as decorative with aria-hidden="true" when they convey no information.
  • If an SVG communicates brand or content meaning, provide an accessible name with role="img" and an aria-label, or include an SVG title.
  • The backlight is decorative and should not be the sole means of conveying information.
  • Verify text and meaningful artwork maintain sufficient contrast against the surrounding background.
