Measured entry
ruixen-scroll-portrait-wall
scroll-effectunclassifiedmotion on file
A client-side React portrait wall that scatters supplied speakers across responsive rows while a sticky title overlays the scroll. It ships as a shadcn registry component and uses GSAP, ScrollTrigger, the GSAP React hook, Tailwind theme classes, and the shared cn utility.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 32.36s error during build: [vite:load-fallback] Could not load <sandbox>/src/lib/utils (imported by src/cut/scroll-portrait-wall.tsx): ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '<sandbox>/src/lib/utils'
Verdict
A credible choice for a high-impact roster section, with responsive behavior, reduced-motion handling, and a clean verified build. It does not mount bare and needs a shadcn-style setup, so teams outside that ecosystem must wire its utility and theme assumptions first.
Use it if
- You need an editorial speaker, team, or contributor showcase led by scroll motion.
- Your React app already uses Tailwind and a shadcn-style component structure.
- You want configurable portraits, captions, columns, title, date, and scroll hint in one component.
Skip it if
- Your page has a strict bundle budget and does not already ship GSAP.
- You need a compact directory rather than a long, presentation-led scroll sequence.
- Your design system cannot support the background, foreground, and muted theme tokens it expects.
- You cannot permit the default demo portraits to load from an external image host.
Install
| Declared dependencies | gsap, @gsap/react |
|---|---|
| Missing on install | @gsap/react |
| 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, install GSAP and its React package, configure the source alias or replace the cn import with a local class-merging helper, and provide Tailwind plus equivalent background, foreground, and muted color tokens. Replace the hosted demo portraits with your own assets.
