Implementation Usage Hero Content Staggered Group Props

Bring a cinematic feel to your interfaces with a Tailwind blur reveal effect. These Tailwind CSS scroll animation components transition elements from blurred to sharp as they enter the viewport, focusing user attention exactly where you want it.

Use a blur reveal on high-impact typography like a Gradient Text hero header or to sequentially surface features in a Card Spotlight grid.

Implementation

"use client";

import React, { useRef } from "react";
import { motion, useInView } from "framer-motion";

export const BlurReveal = ({ children, delay = 0, duration = 0.6, direction = "up", blur = 10 }) => {
  const ref = useRef(null);
  const isInView = useInView(ref, { once: true, margin: "-60px" });
  const offsets = { up: { y: 30 }, down: { y: -30 }, left: { x: 30 }, right: { x: -30 } };

  return (
    <motion.div ref={ref}
      initial={{ opacity: 0, filter: `blur(${blur}px)`, ...offsets[direction] }}
      animate={isInView
        ? { opacity: 1, filter: "blur(0px)", x: 0, y: 0 }
        : { opacity: 0, filter: `blur(${blur}px)`, ...offsets[direction] }}
      transition={{ duration, delay, ease: [0.25, 0.1, 0.25, 1] }}>
      {children}
    </motion.div>
  );
};
