Mesh Gradient

Soft colour blobs drifting into each other. A good default for hero sections and large panels.

mesh-gradient-demo.tsx

import { MeshGradient } from "@/components/mesh-gradient";

export function MeshGradientDemo() {
  return (
    <MeshGradient className="flex h-[360px] items-end p-8">
      <h2 className="text-3xl font-semibold tracking-tight text-white">
        Ship faster
      </h2>
    </MeshGradient>
  );
}

Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add https://gradients.sh/r/mesh-gradient.json

Usage

import { MeshGradient } from "@/components/mesh-gradient";

<MeshGradient className="h-[480px]">{children}</MeshGradient>;

The gradient fills its box, so give it a height. Children render on top.
