The creator is starting with a small set of basic components, plans more advanced features later, and is inviting the community to contribute ideas, code, or design feedback via GitHub. ## Content Hover is where math meets design. Easing curves, timing, and motion all decide whether an interaction feels cheap or feels _right_. That's what I'm exploring with **HoverUI**. I'm starting simple, with a small set of basic components. But I have bigger plans, and something special is coming soon. It's **open source**, so let's build it together. 🚀 Drop a comment: - What hover effect should I add next? - Want to contribute? Tell me how you'd like to help: code, design, feedback, anything.
