About Highlight Text

Marker-pen highlight that sweeps in behind text when in view.

Highlight Text is a free animated component for React, built on shadcn/ui and Tailwind CSS with motion animations that respect reduced-motion settings. It ships as 41 lines of TypeScript you own: every piece of copy is a prop with a sensible default, so you can drop it in and replace the content without touching the layout.
