## Summary

How to use Drop Smooth Waves into a Framer frame or section.

## Description

A shader-based background component that works especially well for landing pages, product websites, portfolios, creative studios, and any layout that needs a refined animated backdrop. Like the reference listing, the strongest positioning is outcome-first: a premium background component that is simple to drop in and quick to tune.

### Highights

-   **Smooth animated waves**: creates a fluid surface with a calm, premium motion style.
    
-   **Shader-based depth**: feels richer than a static gradient or flat background block.
    
-   **Responsive layout behavior**: adapts well across desktop, tablet, and mobile sections.
    
-   **Easy customization**: adjust the look to suit minimal, dark, bright, or expressive brand systems.
    
-   **Hero and section ready**: ideal for intros, dividers, content bands, and product storytelling areas.
    
-   **Framer-friendly**: built as a simple drop-in component for fast setup
    

### Controls

-   **Colors** – set the overall palette of the waves to match your brand or page theme.
    
-   **Speed** – control how fast the motion travels.
    
-   **Amplitude** – adjust how subtle or dramatic the wave movement feels.
    
-   **Smoothness / Distortion** – fine-tune the character of the animation.
    
-   **Opacity** – make the effect more subtle behind content or more visually present.
    
-   **Background / Blend feel** – adapt the component for different section treatments and compositions.
    
-   **Responsive sizing** – fit the component cleanly across different breakpoints and layout heights.
    

### How to use

1.  Drop **Smooth Waves** into a Framer frame or section.
    
2.  Set the size depending on whether you want a full hero background, a feature band, or a smaller visual accent.
    
3.  Adjust the colors, speed, and amplitude to match your brand and page mood.
    
4.  Layer your text, UI, or media above it for a more immersive section design.
    
5.  Fine-tune the intensity so it supports the layout rather than overpowering it
