Summary

Adds a comprehensive docs guide for animated React text effects at content/docs/guides/animated-react-text-effects.mdx.

What's included

  • Action-first opening: "This sprint: pick, install, verify, ship" directive
  • Streamlined intro: Single flowing paragraph with Motion requirements and catalog drift noted inline
  • 10 curated text animation patterns: typewriter, wave reveal, flip, gradient, split, scroll reveal, circular text, glitch, gibberish, and shimmer sweep
  • Cleaner pick formatting: Inline prose descriptions with docs links and install commands
  • Decision framework: Motion vs CSS, when to use which stack
  • Accessibility coverage: reduced-motion, screen reader patterns, aria-hidden decorative layers
  • Ecosystem context: fair comparison with Aceternity, Magic UI, React Bits, shadcn.io/text
  • Installation: registry URLs, manual paste instructions, agent catalog reference

Notes

  • Frontmatter: published: false (draft only; not live yet)
  • Date: 2026-09-05
  • Pattern matches sibling guide: animated-react-buttons.mdx
  • Links to text category (/docs/text) and upcoming blog comparison (/blog/aceternity-ui-vs-magic-ui-vs-animata, soft link updated to "Once published, read...")
  • Senior-voice rewrite with YAML strings properly quoted

Preview

The guide will appear at /docs/guides/animated-react-text-effects after merge, but will be hidden from public navigation while published: false.
