Galaxy

A spiral galaxy of a couple of thousand stars with a glowing core, tilted in 3D and slowly rotating; the pointer tips the disc.

What it is for

Behind a landing hero, a launch or space-themed section (first child of a position:relative section; fills its parent). Dark space in dark themes, a pale star chart in light ones.

Accessibility

  • Keyboard. Components in the kit are written to be reached and used with the keyboard. Try it: press Tab inside the preview.
  • Reduced motion. With prefers-reduced-motion on, animation settles to its finished state at once.
  • Touch. Pointer-follow effects are skipped on touch screens; controls stay finger-sized.
