Art Nouveau
Vine Grow
An Art Nouveau whiplash vine draws itself upward via stroke-dashoffset; four leaves bloom and three gold buds pop along the S-curves on a dark green background.

When to use it
Decorative hero backgrounds, botanical or luxury brand tiles, ambient looping displays needing an organic, hand-crafted feel.
When not to
Content-heavy layouts where the looping vine competes with text; contexts requiring a light background (hardcoded dark green).
Working with an AI agent
Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:
Change the main stem color to deep burgundy (#8b2c3a), increase stroke-width on .an01-s1 to 7, and slow the full cycle to 8s. Theme: dark tokens live in :root, the light variant in :root[data-theme="light"]; ?theme=light or a {type:'forever:theme'} postMessage switches at runtime.
Safe to edit
- stem colors (stroke on .an01-s1, .an01-s2, .an01-s3)
- animation duration (5.2s on all animations)
- bud petal gradient (an01-petal stop colors)
- leaf fill gradient (an01-leafg stop colors)
- animation delays per element (--d CSS var)
- theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)
Keep intact
- stroke-dasharray/dashoffset self-draw pattern on .an01-stem
- prefers-reduced-motion guard (CSS + JS settle-to-static)
- visibilitychange pause handler
- IIFE wrapper
- theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)
Known limitations
- Background color hardcoded in CSS (#0e1310) — must change both the body and radialGradient to recolor
- SVG glow filter applied to the stem group adds compositor cost on older mobile GPUs
