Text reveal
A heading whose words rise in with a soft blur-to-sharp, staggered as it enters the viewport, with the full text shown immediately under reduced motion.
Preview
Resize it, switch the theme, replay the entrance — or read the source.
Installation
Add the block to a project that already uses shadcn/ui.
npx shadcn@latest add https://prequelui.terravidhal.me/r/text-reveal.jsonRequires a project that already uses shadcn/ui on React and Tailwind CSS v4. The block is copied into your project as a single file you own and can edit.
Usage
Import the named export and render it with your own data.
Every prop is optional and ships with deterministic demo data, so a bare render shows the block at its default. Pass props to plug in your own data and formatters.
import { TextReveal } from "@/components/prequel/text-reveal/text-reveal";
export default function DashboardPage() {
return <TextReveal />;
}import { TextReveal } from "@/components/prequel/text-reveal/text-reveal";
export default function DashboardPage() {
return <TextReveal />;
}Props
Every prop is optional and ships with demo-data defaults.

Accessibility
The rules every PrequelUI block follows, verified against this block's source.
Charts and graphics expose a text summary via role="img" and an aria-label describing the data.
Interactive charts respond to arrow keys, Home and End, and show tooltips on keyboard focus.
Every button carries a visible focus ring so keyboard users can always see where they are.
The block honours prefers-reduced-motion: animations are skipped and content is fully visible.
Live updates run on timers inside effects and pause when the block is off-screen or hovered.
