Dot Matrix `<mv-dot-matrix>`

Grade WebGL de pontos quadrados: ao carregar, eles se acendem do centro para fora com uma breve faísca, depois cada ponto sorteia de novo o seu brilho em momentos aleatórios próprios, para uma cintilação calma, alguns pontos de destaque respiram mais forte e uma zona mais viva se abre em torno do ponteiro. Autônomo (nenhum runtime de shader para instalar), ele pausa fora da tela, compartilha o orçamento de contextos WebGL da página e mostra uma grade estática totalmente revelada com movimento reduzido.

When to use

A hero or launch section should reveal a colorful dot grid from the center on load
A tech or data brand wants a calm flickering dot field that brightens around the pointer

Avoid when

A static or CSS-only dot texture is enough, e.g. behind docs or app screens → use Dot Pattern instead
A quiet dot texture should fade out behind a section title with no script at all → use Backdrop instead

Uso

Marcação de referência, para usar como ponto de partida e personalizar com atributos, data-* e variáveis CSS:

<mv-dot-matrix data-fill></mv-dot-matrix>
<div style="position:relative;display:grid;place-items:center;height:100%;min-height:320px;color:white;text-align:center;pointer-events:none">
  <div>
    <p style="margin:0;font:700 clamp(1.6rem,4vw,2.6rem)/1.1 var(--mv-font-sans);letter-spacing:-.03em;text-shadow:0 4px 24px rgb(0 0 0 / .45)">Every signal, one grid</p>
    <p style="margin:.5rem 0 0;opacity:.8;font-size:.9rem">&lt;mv-dot-matrix spacing="10"&gt;</p>
  </div>
</div>

API

Attributes

Name	Tipo	Default	Description
`colors`	CSS colors (3)	`var(--mv-accent), #38bdf8, #e879f9`	Dot palette: main tint, then the two accent colors (tokens accepted, re-read on theme change).
`dot-size`	number	`2.5`	Dot side length, in CSS pixels.
`spacing`	number	`10`	Grid pitch, in CSS pixels.
`reveal`	number	`1.6`	Duration of the reveal from the center (seconds per unit of distance, one unit being the element's height).
`flicker`	number	`1`	Flicker speed (0 = dots hold their level).
`accent`	number	`0.025`	Share of brighter accent dots (0 to 0.5).
`hover-radius`	number	`0.3`	Radius of the zone that wakes up around the pointer (fraction of the height).
`speed`	number	`1`	Time multiplier.
`paused`	boolean		Freezes the grid on the current frame (fully revealed if paused from the start).
`interactive`	boolean		Only pointer moves over the element itself count; by default the window is watched, so content on top does not block the hover zone.
`dpr`	number	`1.5`	Max pixel density (capped at 2).
`data-fill`	boolean		Fills the positioned parent (absolute, inset 0).

Content structure

Name	Description
`children`	Content placed inside the element sits above the grid.

Accessibility

Decorative: the canvas is aria-hidden and never takes pointer events. The loop stops off screen and in hidden tabs; reduced motion (OS or <html data-motion="reduce">) and paused show a still, fully revealed grid with no hover zone. Without WebGL2 a still CSS dot grid is shown; forced colors and print hide the canvas.
