Pinfield

A grid of pins that carries pulses — click and a wavefront travels outward, lighting the field.

Live — this one is real

Grid — 26px

Click the field — a pulse travels through the grid

Usage

tsx
import { Pinfield } from "mizu-ui";

export function Field() {
  return <Pinfield gap={26} />;
}

Source & setup

Add this component to your project with the shadcn CLI. The command copies its source into your configured UI directory, with base.css, Mizu’s tokens, and the stylesheets that hold its rules. Each rule lives in one stylesheet, so components you add together never repeat CSS. In a project without a components.json, run npx shadcn@latest init 0xuser64bit/mizu/preset first: plain init installs shadcn’s theme into your global CSS. Then load the fonts.

sh
npx shadcn@latest add 0xuser64bit/mizu/pinfield

Every component imports from its own path, its name in kebab case. To paste the example, replace its mizu-ui import with:

tsx
import { Pinfield } from "@/components/ui/mizu/pinfield";

For npm imports, import mizu-ui/styles.css once. Fonts are optional via mizu-ui/fonts.css. Override --mizu-* tokens or use className for local styling. Requires React and Motion. A Client Component: its source starts with “use client”.
