Code Block
Scroll Hint
A code block with horizontal scrolling and an honest hint about it: the edge shade and the caption fade out as the reader scrolls.
React + Tailwind, shadcn-compatible: press “Copy for AI” and your Cursor or Claude Code agent installs it with the shadcn CLI.
What you can change
- the block code through code and the heading through title
- the hint text through hint
- the shade width and the animation-range span
A link for your AI agent: preview, code and instructions.

FAQ
- How do I add Scroll Hint with Cursor or Claude Code?
- Press “Copy for AI” on this page and paste it into your agent's chat. The instruction contains the shadcn CLI install command, the dependencies and what to keep, so the agent installs this exact component instead of recreating a lookalike.
- What does Scroll Hint depend on?
- No npm packages beyond React and Tailwind CSS.
- What can I change in Scroll Hint?
- Adapt: the block code through code and the heading through title; the hint text through hint; the shade width and the animation-range span. Keep as installed: the local --vibeui-codeblock-011-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens; tabIndex and role=region on the scroller: without them the code cannot be scrolled by keyboard; the shade painted over the code rather than a mask on it — a mask eats the text itself.
- Is Scroll Hint free?
- Yes. The preview is open without an account; with a free account you can copy up to 20 components a month.

Technical notes
The component is self-contained: one file, zero dependencies, its own palette in the local --vibeui-codeblock-011-* variables. Server component: no hooks. The scroll area declares a named scroll-timeline, the root exposes it through timeline-scope, and the shading and the hint are faded out by an animation bound to that timeline — there are no scroll handlers in JS. Everything is wrapped in @supports (animation-timeline: scroll()): without support the hint simply stays visible. The scroll area gets a tabIndex and role=region, otherwise it cannot be reached from the keyboard. The theme comes from the surrounding color-scheme through light-dark(): the block has no surface by default, and the edge shading is drawn with a translucent gradient, so it works over any page background.
