Thin meteor streaks with fading tails falling at an angle across a dark panel

- **Install:** `npx shadcn@latest add @magicui/meteors`
- **Registry:** magic-ui · **Framework:** react · **License:** MIT
- **Docs and preview:** https://magicui.design/docs/components/meteors
- **Source:** https://github.com/magicuidesign/magicui/blob/main/apps/www/registry/magicui/meteors.tsx
- **Example:** https://skills.varg.ai/previews/lib-magic-ui-meteors.mp4?v=20930 (Captured from the library’s own demo page (Magic UI))
- **Time:** Drive from the frame. Runs on its own clock (requestAnimationFrame, timers, springs or CSS). Drive it from frame / fps before rendering, or the render drifts.
- **Runs:** local render, free
- **Aspect:** any

## Prompt that renders it frame-exact

Use Meteors from Magic UI (https://magicui.design/docs/components/meteors, MIT) as an overlay on a dark card or across the whole frame behind a title. Each meteor is a CSS keyframe with a random left offset, delay and duration picked by Math.random on mount. For a render, generate those values from a seeded random, then either let HyperFrames' CSS adapter seek the keyframes (with a finite iteration count) or, in Remotion, compute each meteor's translate and opacity from (frame / fps - delay) % duration. Set number, angle, minDelay/maxDelay and minDuration/maxDuration, and tint the tail colour.
