Customization

Manual Pattern Customization

You can easily customize any background pattern by modifying the pattern object structure. Each pattern follows this format:

{
  id: "unique-pattern-id",
  name: "Pattern Display Name",
  badge: "New",
  style: {
    background: "#ffffff",
    backgroundImage: `
      // Your CSS background patterns here
      linear-gradient(to right, #f0f0f0 1px, transparent 1px),
      radial-gradient(circle 800px at 100% 200px, #d5c5ff, transparent)
    `,
    backgroundSize: "96px 64px, 100% 100%",
  },
  code: `


  {/* Pattern Name Background */}



  {/* Your Content/Components */}


`,
}

Customization Tips

Colors: Change hex values in backgroundImage gradients Sizing: Modify backgroundSize values for different scales Positioning: Adjust gradient positions and directions Effects: Add multiple background layers for complex patterns

Example Customization

// Original pattern
backgroundImage: `linear-gradient(to right, #f0f0f0 1px, transparent 1px)`;

// Customized version
backgroundImage: `linear-gradient(to right, #3b82f6 1px, transparent 1px)`; // Blue lines
backgroundSize: "48px 32px"; // Smaller grid

Usage

1. Browse the pattern collection on the website
2. Click on any pattern to see the live preview
3. Use the "Add to Favorites" feature to save patterns you like
4. Copy the generated CSS code
5. Paste it into your project

Each pattern includes:

• Complete CSS styling
• Tailwind-compatible code
• Responsive implementation
• Cross-browser compatibility

git checkout -b feature/new-pattern-name

1. Navigate to src/data/patterns.ts
2. Add your pattern following the established format:

{
  id: "unique-pattern-id",
  name: "Pattern Display Name",
  category: "gradients" | "geometric" | "decorative" | "effects",
