Magnetic `<mv-magnetic>`

Envoltorio magnético: el elemento hijo se inclina hacia el cursor cercano con una atenuación suave, lo sigue un poco mientras está encima y luego vuelve a su sitio con un rebote elástico. A diferencia de la mayoría de los efectos magnéticos, nunca se escapa de debajo del puntero, así que el hover y los clics siguen siendo precisos, y solo se mueve unos pocos píxeles.

Estado	estable
Keywords	safe-rewrite, magnetic, magnet, cursor, hover, spring, parallax, cta, hit-area

When to use

A primary CTA or icon button should lean toward the cursor and spring back
Nav items or social links need a tactile hover with extra parallax on their inner content
A hero button should feel alive on hover without making it harder to click

Avoid when

Every link and button of a nav or dense toolbar needs a hover; a gliding highlight beats many moving targets → use Cursor Snap instead
The whole cursor should be replaced by a custom follower → use Cursor Follower instead
A card should tilt in 3D toward the pointer rather than translate → use Tilt Card instead

API

Attributes

Name	Tipo	Default	Description
`strength`	number	`0.3`	Share of the pointer's offset from the center that the child leans by (0-1).
`radius`	number	`64`	Attraction margin around the resting box (px); the pull fades smoothly to zero at its edge.
`inner`	number	`0.4`	Extra movement of [data-magnetic-inner] (multiplier, parallax).
`max`	number	`12`	Maximum displacement (px, 0 = unlimited).
`disabled`	boolean		Disables the attraction (the child springs back).
`data-active`	(state)		Set by the component while the pointer is inside the zone (for styling).

Content structure

Name	Description
`(child)`	The element that leans (one button, link or card).
`[data-magnetic-inner]`	Descendant(s) that move further.

CSS variables

Name	Default	Description
`--mv-magnetic-x / -y`		Current offset (px), exposed for your own effects.
`--mv-magnetic-inner`	`0.4`	Parallax multiplier (driven by the inner attribute).

Accessibility

Purely visual: the child stays a real link or button, and only its translate changes, so layout, focus order and the focus ring are untouched. Keyboard focus never moves anything. Hit area: whenever the lean puts the target under the pointer, the moving target is clamped so the pointer stays on it (a few px inside its edge), so springs, lag or overshoot never cause hover flicker or a missed click; the pull fades smoothly to zero at the zone edge, so nothing jumps. Pointer effect only with a fine hovering pointer ((hover: hover) and (pointer: fine)), touch is ignored. Reduced motion (OS or data-motion="reduce"): no movement at all, offsets reset to zero. Forced colors: unaffected, the component adds no color. The system cursor is never hidden. Performance: all instances share one pointermove listener and one frame loop that reads every box before writing, uses translate only, and stops as soon as everything rests; everything is removed with the last instance.
