Measured entry
kokonut-scroll-text
scroll-effectdark-futuristicmotion on file
A client-side React and Tailwind text scroller that highlights the centered label while Motion animates each item into view. It ships as a shadcn registry component, accepts a text list and class override, and depends on Motion plus the usual cn utility alias.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 1m 46s error during build: [vite:load-fallback] Could not load <sandbox>/src/lib/utils (imported by src/cut/components/kokonutui/scroll-text.tsx): ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '<sandbox>/src/lib/utils'
Verdict
A focused visual effect that builds and mounts in its intended environment, but it needs a shadcn-style setup. Treat it as a starting point, since the scroll region lacks keyboard access and muted labels fail contrast checks.
Use it if
- You need a compact, self-scrolling list of technologies, categories, or short labels.
- Your project already uses Tailwind, Motion, and shadcn-style path aliases.
- You are prepared to fix the component's contrast and keyboard access before release.
Skip it if
- The scrolling content must be keyboard accessible without modification.
- Your design requires verified text contrast out of the box.
- You want a lightweight static list without an animation dependency.
- Your labels may be long enough that forced no-wrap text becomes awkward.
Install
| Declared dependencies | motion |
|---|---|
| Missing on install | none |
| Bare install | fails once the shadcn-style helpers are removed, so it needs that setup |
| Provider | no provider required in the harness |
In a non-shadcn project, add Motion and Tailwind, provide a cn class-merging helper, configure the at-sign source alias, and preserve client-side rendering. Also add keyboard focus and scrolling behavior, then adjust muted text colors to meet contrast requirements.
