The decision inside it

The colour follows the angle, not the cursor

The spectrum is strongest at steep angles and nearly gone face-on, the way foil behaves, so a card at rest looks like a card. Tilt, glare and colour ride one spring and never lag each other. A tap rocks it once on touch; reduced motion keeps it flat.

When to use it

Use Prism Card to make one card feel physical: a membership pass, a pricing tier, a product shot. It tilts toward the pointer with a holographic sheen.

Installation

How you get it

Paste this into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or any coding agent. It installs the file and uses it as it is, instead of writing a new one.

Use Liro's Prism Card for this.
Install it: npx shadcn@latest add @liro/prism-card
(the @liro registry is set up in components.json, with LIRO_KEY in .env.local)
Import it from @/components/ui/prism-card.
Do not rewrite or restyle it. Pass my data through its props
and keep its built-in states.

For the full brief with every prop and the mistakes assistants usually make, use Copy prompt above. Pro components install through the @liro registry with your CLI token: see the Namespaced tab.

Usage

components/member-pass.tsx
import { PrismCard } from "@/components/ui/prism-card";

export function MemberPass() {
  return (
    <PrismCard className="aspect-[1.586] w-[360px] bg-neutral-900 p-5 text-white">
      <p className="font-semibold">Madgixs Founders</p>
      <p className="mt-auto font-mono">0042 · 2026</p>
    </PrismCard>
  );
}

States

All of them are drawn by the component. None is left for you to design.

  • Rest
  • Tilting
  • Focused
  • Tap rock
  • Reduced motion

Accessibility

  • Keyboard reachable throughout, in visual order
  • Focus trapped in overlays, Escape closes them
  • Focus returns to whatever opened it
  • Live regions announce what changed, not that something did
  • Honours prefers-reduced-motion

Responsive behavior

  • Sizes to its container, not the viewport
  • Usable from 320px up
  • Pointer-based interaction, so trackpad and touch both work
  • No hover-only affordances
