Dot Pattern Demo
A ready-to-use example that renders a centered SVG dot pattern over a 500px-tall, bordered container. A radial mask keeps the dots most visible near the center and fades them toward the edges.

Usage
usage.tsx
import DotPatternDemo from "@/registry/magicui/dot-pattern-demo"export default function Example() { return <DotPatternDemo />}- Add a subtle decorative background to hero sections, empty states, or feature panels.
- Use behind centered content when the pattern should remain visually restrained near the edges.
- Use as a starting point for experimenting with SVG-based background textures in Magic UI layouts.
Examples
Hero section background
Use the demo as the visual background for a centered hero area.
hero-section-background.tsx
import DotPatternDemo from "@/registry/magicui/dot-pattern-demo"export default function HeroPattern() { return ( <section aria-label="Featured content"> <DotPatternDemo /> </section> )}Dashboard empty state
Place the decorative panel inside an empty-state region.
dashboard-empty-state.tsx
import DotPatternDemo from "@/registry/magicui/dot-pattern-demo"export default function EmptyStatePattern() { return ( <main> <DotPatternDemo /> <p className="sr-only">No items are currently available.</p> </main> )}Reusable page section
Render the example as a standalone visual section between page content blocks.
reusable-page-section.tsx
import DotPatternDemo from "@/registry/magicui/dot-pattern-demo"export default function PatternSection() { return ( <div className="space-y-8"> <h2 className="text-xl font-semibold">Explore the collection</h2> <DotPatternDemo /> </div> )}Accessibility
- The demo is decorative and does not add interactive controls or meaningful text content.
- Keep meaningful headings, descriptions, and controls outside the decorative pattern so they remain available to assistive technology.
- The pattern is masked and visually subtle; do not rely on it to communicate status, instructions, or contrast-dependent information.
- The container has no built-in accessible name or role, so add surrounding semantic context when it represents a meaningful section.
