PaceUI

What Is the Pace UI?

PaceUI is a growing React component library that combines Tailwind CSS with GSAP animations for fluid, eye-catching interfaces. Built to follow the simple, copy-paste ethos of shadcn/ui (but with motion baked in), it delivers ready-to-use UI pieces—from text effects to full-page blocks—that slot seamlessly into React or Next.js projects.

Features ✨

• GSAP-powered animations for high-performance transitions and effects.

• Tailwind CSS utility classes ensure styling consistency and easy customization.

• Copy-paste usage—no extra setup if you’re already using shadcn’s CLI.

• CLI integration for one-command installs and updates.

• Future-ready blocks roadmap with marketing, e-commerce, and custom layouts coming soon.

A diverse set of animated elements you can drop in directly:

• Text-based: Reveal Text, Scramble Text, Distort Text, Squash Text, Bouncing Text.
