Usage
usage.tsx
import { BlurFade } from "@/registry/magicui/blur-fade"export default function BlurFadeDemo() { return ( <BlurFade delay={0.25} inView> <img className="size-full rounded-lg object-contain" src="https://picsum.photos/800/600" alt="Random stock image" /> </BlurFade> )}- Use as a visual example of staggered reveal animations in a gallery or media grid.
- Use when demonstrating viewport-triggered blur and fade effects with `BlurFade`.
- Use as a starting point for portfolios, image galleries, or masonry-style content layouts.
Examples
Staggered image gallery
The original demo pattern with responsive columns and progressively delayed viewport reveals.
staggered-image-gallery.tsx
import { BlurFade } from "@/registry/magicui/blur-fade"const images = Array.from({ length: 9 }, (_, i) => `https://picsum.photos/seed/${i + 1}/800/600`,)export default function GalleryExample() { return ( <div className="columns-2 gap-4 sm:columns-3"> {images.map((imageUrl, index) => ( <BlurFade key={imageUrl} delay={0.25 + index * 0.05} inView> <img className="mb-4 size-full rounded-lg object-contain" src={imageUrl} alt={`Gallery image ${index + 1}`} /> </BlurFade> ))} </div> )}Animated feature content
A single content block that fades and unblurs when it enters the viewport.
animated-feature-content.tsx
import { BlurFade } from "@/registry/magicui/blur-fade"export default function FeatureExample() { return ( <BlurFade delay={0.2} inView> <article className="rounded-xl border p-6"> <h2 className="text-xl font-semibold">Featured collection</h2> <p className="mt-2 text-muted-foreground"> Explore the latest additions to our collection. </p> </article> </BlurFade> )}Staggered card list
Several cards use increasing delays to create a coordinated entrance sequence.
staggered-card-list.tsx
import { BlurFade } from "@/registry/magicui/blur-fade"const items = ["Analytics", "Automation", "Integrations"]export default function CardListExample() { return ( <div className="grid gap-4 sm:grid-cols-3"> {items.map((item, index) => ( <BlurFade key={item} delay={0.15 + index * 0.1} inView> <div className="rounded-lg border p-4"> <h3 className="font-medium">{item}</h3> </div> </BlurFade> ))} </div> )}Accessibility
- The demo uses a semantic `section` element for the gallery region.
- Every image includes descriptive alternative text generated from its position in the gallery.
- Keep meaningful `alt` text when replacing the sample images; use an empty `alt` only for purely decorative images.
- The animation is visual enhancement only, so the gallery content remains present in the document regardless of animation state.
- The demo does not provide a section label; add `aria-labelledby` with a visible heading if the gallery needs an accessible name.
- The example does not show reduced-motion handling; consider adding an application-level reduced-motion strategy when motion sensitivity is a requirement.
