When to use it
Nav bars, sidebars, mobile menus — any context needing a tactile open/close toggle with clear visual state change.
When not to
Production use without removing the auto-cycle loop; layouts where the teal accent conflicts with brand colors.
Working with an AI agent
Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:
Change accent color to #00c896 (update --accent-iris and --border-glow), increase button size to 100px, slow spring duration to 400ms (--dur-base). 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
- accent color (--accent-iris)
- button size (width/height 84px)
- spring easing (--ease-spring)
- animation duration (--dur-base: 280ms)
- line dimensions (width: 36px, height: 3px)
- idle demo cadence (DEMO_EVERY=3500 ms, OPEN_AT=300 / CLOSE_AT=2000)
- theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)
Keep intact
- aria-pressed attribute update in set()
- visibilitychange stop/start
- IIFE wrapper
- idle demo clock (setInterval tick() + demo/idle takeover on real click)
- theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)
Known limitations
- Idle demo cycle runs by default (real input takes over, resumes after a few idle seconds) — remove the demo block for purely on-demand interaction
- Light re-theme via the [data-theme=light] token block; catalog bg/accent describe the dark default

- Magnify DockmacOS-style frosted-glass dock of six gradient tiles that scale up and lift toward the cursor; idle auto-sweep keeps it animated when untouched.
- Gooey Tab BarPill-shaped tab bar with a vermillion blob that slides between tabs using a spring easing and SVG goo filter for liquid merge effect on dark surface.
- Radial Fan MenuA core button rotates to an X and fans five glowing stone-toned icon petals outward in a staggered spring arc; auto-cycles open/close as a demo.
- Slide-in DrawerHamburger icon morphs to an X while a side panel slides in over a dark scrim, revealing four nav items with staggered fade-in animations.
- Underline FollowA glowing emerald-to-tan gradient underline slides and resizes to follow hovered nav links; wanders idly across links when unhovered.
- Sliding PillA 3-segment Day/Week/Month toggle where a glowing translucent pill slides between options with a spring bounce on a dark rounded bar.
