Frequently Asked Questions

QCan I use it for dark mode?

Yes, simply swap the background and blob colors to darker tones like slate-900 or indigo-950 for a stunning dark mesh.

QHow fluid is the movement?

The blobs follow a smooth, continuous path using Framer Motion's spring and loop animations for a realistic silken feel.

QDoes it support custom shapes?

The 'mesh' is created via overlapping blurred blobs, which can be resized or repositioned to create different flow patterns.
