shimmer-button

Make one primary CTA feel premium: a soft band of light sweeps across it (slowly at rest, faster on hover). Reserve for the single primary button; keep it subtle. Pure CSS; the sweep stops (solid button) under prefers-reduced-motion. Do not use on secondary/destructive buttons or many at once.

# shimmer-button

A highlight that sweeps across a CTA. Part of
[motion-anything](https://github.com/nexu-io/motion-anything); obeys `MOTION-SPEC.md`. Technique
popularized by Magic UI, reimplemented dependency-free (pure CSS).

## When to use it
- One primary call-to-action you want to feel premium ("Get started" / "Upgrade").

## When NOT to use it (restraint)
- Secondary / destructive buttons; many buttons at once (the sweep becomes noise). **One per view.**

## How to apply
1. Copy `shimmer-button.css` into the project and link it.
