Word Crossfade
Words fade in with a subtle drift — calmer than per-character.
Installation
Run the following command:
pnpmdlx shadcn@latest add https://mutype.dev/r/per-word-crossfade.jsonProps
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |

| spec | AnimationSpec | — | Animation spec object (imported from components/mutype/specs/<id>). |
| text | string | — | The text to animate. |
| as | "span" | "div" | "h1"–"h4" | "p" | "span" | The HTML element to render. |

Usage notes
Best for 3-8 word phrases. Calmer than per-character — use when copy needs to read clearly without distraction.
