10+ React Hover Effects

This React Filterable Image Gallery is a clean, component-based solution for organizing visual content. Unlike simple “show/hide” scripts, it uses React’s state management to handle complex multi-criteria filtering. Users can toggle multiple categories (e.g., “Food” AND “Plants”) simultaneously, or reset everything with an “All” button. The UI is polished with pastel colors and smooth hover animations. (Requires: React, ReactDOM)

A stacked “fan-style” gallery built with React, leveraging CSS sibling selectors to trigger complex 3D transforms on hover. Each card in the stack reacts dynamically: the hovered item scales up, while subsequent items shift and rotate, creating a fluid, cascading reveal effect without JavaScript animations.

Interactive postcard gallery that randomizes position, rotation and z-index on hover, using pure React hooks and CSS 3D transforms for a lively, physics-like layout.

A full-screen React demo that generates a dense grid of 50px squares, each turning into a glowing, moving trail when the mouse passes over them. The trail color cycles through a palette on single clicks.

Compact demo of state-driven hover effects in React, combining JSX, SCSS mixins and CSS transitions for a polished, responsive UI snippet.

A canvas-based GIF scrubber that preloads 20 frames, maps mouse → frame index with a linear mapper, and loops three times for seamless replay. Uses a tiny custom hook for mounting and another for unified mouse/touch tracking, keeping the component pure and performant.

Interactive icon cards use --mouse-x/--mouse-y variables to position two layered gradients, giving a depth-enhancing glow that follows the pointer, while the icon smoothly enlarges on hover. No external libraries — pure React + CSS.

A highly interactive demo that uses React state to drive a dynamic light effect based on the mouse cursor’s position, with comprehensive event handling for seamless touch and mobile support.

The demo showcases an advanced cursor-reactive animation built with React and GSAP. It utilizes HTML5 Canvas to display an an image broken into multiple fragments that spread out and scale as the cursor approaches, creating a unique visual effect.

This component demonstrates how to create a “Spotlight” effect that follows the cursor using React and Framer Motion. It leverages AnimatePresence for smooth entry/exit animations and dynamically updates CSS variables for the radial gradient.
