# Infinite Canvas

> Infinite panning grid for product canvas

A Feature Section component for React, Tailwind and shadcn by @iurvish, version 1.0.0, MIT licence.

A free-panning product canvas that tiles forever — drag, scroll, and skim an endless grid of images and captions.

## Install

```bash
npx layro-cli add @iurvish/infinite-canvas
```

Or with shadcn: `npx shadcn@latest add https://layro.dev/r/iurvish/infinite-canvas.json`

npm packages: clsx, tailwind-merge
