Liquid Glass Accordion

Component 8

About

Liquid glass FAQ accordion with a real water pool: it stretches to the question you open, pinches like a drop and pours down into the answer. Drains back into the + when closed. WebGL shader with CSS fallback. Apple-style liquid glass, zero dependencies.

Built with React and Tailwind. Copy the prompt and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor or Lovable: your agent adds Liquid Glass Accordion to your project and fits it to your theme.

Code

How Liquid Glass Accordion is used: the demo's code. The component's own source comes with a free account.

Usage.tsx

import { LiquidAccordion } from "@/components/ui/liquid-glass-accordion"

const FAQ = [
  {
    question: "What is Nimbus UI?",
    answer: "A free React component library in Frutiger Aero × liquid glass. Every piece runs on the same tiny WebGL water engine.",
  },
  {
    question: "Is the water real?",
    answer: "It's a shader, not a video. The pool is simulated: it stretches, pinches into droplets and lands with a ripple.",
  },
  {
    question: "Does it work without WebGL?",
    answer: "Yes. It falls back to a soft CSS pool, and it respects reduced motion.",
  },
  {
    question: "Any dependencies?",
    answer: "Only React. TypeScript strict, keyboard and screen-reader friendly.",
  },
  {
    question: "Can I use it in commercial projects?",
    answer: "Yes, it's MIT. A credit is always appreciated.",
  },
]
