Light pillar

Vertical beams of light rise from a glowing floor with a hot core, slow shimmer and drifting embers; the pillar nearest the pointer swells.

What it is for

Behind a hero, an award or launch announcement, or a pricing highlight (first child of a position:relative section).

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.
