# Kinetic Center Build

> Apple keynote-style word-by-word text animation

A Text Effect component for React, Tailwind and shadcn by @educlopez, version 1.0.0, MIT licence.

A text animation component that displays phrases one word at a time, with each word entering from the right and pushing previous words to the left. It transitions smoothly between phrases, locking the full phrase centered. Use it to create dynamic, Apple keynote-style text effects.

## Install

```bash
npx layro-cli add @educlopez/kinetic-center-build
```

Or with shadcn: `npx shadcn@latest add https://layro.dev/r/educlopez/kinetic-center-build.json`

npm packages: motion
