Flip Words
The word flips to the next on a timer, and the width eases to fit so the rest of the line slides instead of jumping. Pauses while the pointer is over it.
The decision inside it
A screen reader hears every option once
The rotating word is hidden from assistive tech and the options are read as one phrase, so the headline makes sense without waiting.
When to use it
Use Flip Words to rotate one word inside a headline through a short list. The line resizes smoothly. For whole lines that type out, use Typewriter.
Installation
How you get it
Paste this into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or any coding agent. It installs the file and uses it as it is, instead of writing a new one.
Use Layro's Flip Words for this.
Install it: npx shadcn@latest add @layro/flip-words
(the @layro registry is set up in components.json, with LAYRO_KEY in .env.local)
Import it from @/components/ui/flip-words.
Do not rewrite or restyle it. Pass my data through its props
and keep its built-in states.For the full brief with every prop and the mistakes assistants usually make, use Copy prompt above. Pro components install through the @layro registry with your CLI token: see the Namespaced tab.
Usage
import { FlipWords } from "@/components/ui/flip-words";
export function HeroAudience() {
return (
<h1 className="text-4xl font-semibold">
E-signatures for <FlipWords words={["sales teams", "landlords", "agencies"]} />
</h1>
);
