When to Use
Use this component for hero sections or full-page backgrounds where you want a deep, atmospheric, and highly 'liquid' feel that reacts subtly to mouse movement.
Best Practices
Pair with high-contrast, bold typography. The deep color shifts work best as a backdrop for minimal content that needs to feel premium and moody.
Why This Component Matters
Standard CSS-only gradients often lack the depth and organic feel of real-world fluid dynamics. This component uses GLSL shaders to provide high-performance, complex motion that elevates the visual quality of any modern web interface.
FAQ
QCan I use different colors?
Yes, you can pass any hex color to `color1`, `color2`, and `color3` to completely transform the mood from dark burgundy to any other palette.
QIs it performance-heavy?
The component uses WebGL via the OGL library, which is extremely lightweight and efficient, ensuring smooth 60fps animations even on mobile devices.
QDoes it support mouse interaction?
Yes, it has a built-in mouse lag/follow effect that subtly distorts the liquid based on the cursor position.
