Blur text

Words, or letters, come into focus out of a soft blur, one after another.

Background Studio: tune it below, then copy the code

Your system asks for reduced motion: the demo shows its final state and nothing moves.

Blur text example

Each word comes into focus.

Code

It follows the controls above: change an option and the code changes with it.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/axi0/motion/motion.css?v=6">
<script src="/axi0/motion/motion.js?v=10" defer></script>

<p class="demo-big" data-motion="blur-text">Each word comes into focus.</p>

import { BlurText } from "./motion/react/BlurText";

<BlurText>Your content</BlurText>

<script setup lang="ts">
import BlurText from "./motion/vue/BlurText.vue";
</script>

<template>
  <BlurText>Your content</BlurText>
</template>

const el = document.querySelector("#title");
el.dataset.motion = "blur-text";
// run the entrance again: axi0Motion.play(el, "blur-text")

The wrappers: BlurText.tsx (React, TypeScript) and BlurText.vue (Vue). Both render the same attributes as the HTML; the loader does the rest.

Options

Attribute	Default	What it does
`data-motion-split`	`words`	`words` or `chars` (letters)
`data-motion-stagger`	`90`	milliseconds between pieces
`data-motion-duration`	`800`	milliseconds per piece
`data-motion-delay`	`0`	milliseconds before the first piece

The same rules as split text, whose script and styles it loads first (a few hundred bytes of its own).

Size

blur-text.js is 0.1 KB gzip, with split-text.js 1.3 KB it needs. A page loads the loader (2.7 KB) and core.js (1.4 KB) once, whatever it uses.
