Magnetic Button Press

Glowing teal pill auto-cycles a press: squash/bulge, white ripple burst, and label that drifts magnetically toward an orbiting cursor dot.

When to use it

CTA button demos, interactive UI showcases, onboarding flows where you want to suggest tappability without requiring real user input.

When not to

Production buttons requiring real click handling — the press is auto-cycled; wire a real click event and remove the loop before shipping.

Working with an AI agent

Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:

Change the button label from 'PRESS' to 'BUY NOW', set ACC to '#34D399' for a green accent, and slow the cycle by changing PERIOD from 190 to 280. 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 (ACC='#22AEC3')
  • label text (label='PRESS')
  • cycle length (PERIOD=190)
  • squash intensity (press*0.06)
  • magnetic pull strength (pullStr=0.10)
  • theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)

Keep intact

  • DPR-aware canvas sizing
  • visibilitychange pause/resume
  • prefers-reduced-motion guard
  • IIFE wrapper
  • theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)

Known limitations

  • Press cycle is auto-driven — not wired to real pointer clicks; replace with a click listener for production use
  • Ripple fires on the auto-cycle depress edge, not on actual user input
