Ribbon Flow

Backgrounds

About

An animated canvas background of translucent, silk-like ribbons that drift and glow where they overlap, with a reduced-motion fallback and pointer-reactive bending.

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

Code

How Ribbon Flow is used: the demo's code. The component's own source comes with a free account.

Usage.tsx

"use client";

import { RibbonFlow } from "@/components/ui/ribbon-flow";

const THEMES: Record<string, { colors: string[]; bg: string }> = {
  aurora: {
    colors: ["#8fa8d8", "#a898e0", "#7fc4c8", "#d8a8c8"],
    bg: "#08060c",
  },
  ember: {
    colors: ["#e8a24a", "#d8704a", "#f0c890", "#a85a6a"],
    bg: "#0b0706",
  },
  mono: { colors: ["#efe8dc", "#a7a1ab", "#b9cce4"], bg: "#08070a" },
};

export default function Demo({ variant = "aurora" }: { variant?: string }) {
  const t = THEMES[variant] ?? THEMES.aurora;
  return (
    <div className="relative w-full h-screen">
      <RibbonFlow
        colors={t.colors}
        background={t.bg}
        className="h-full min-h-full w-full"
