Guides building GPU-accelerated visual effects in React / Next.js with the shaders npm package from shaders.com — declarative component trees, composition (stacking, nesting, blend modes, masking), reactive props, dynamic prop drivers (auto-animate, mouse-position, map), shape (SDF) effects, color space, performance budget (RTT / generator vs filter), and SSR safety. Use when the user asks to add a "shader background", "WebGPU effect", "aurora / plasma / swirl / glass / cursor-trail" hero, mentions shaders.com, the shaders/react package, the component, or wants animated GPU-rendered visuals in a React or Next.js app. Not for raw GLSL / WebGL / Three.js / react-three-fiber work — those use different APIs.

Quick start
Copy the install prompt. Use the green button above this README.
Send it to your agent. Paste it into your coding agent’s chat and send.
Review the setup. Your agent checks the skill’s instructions, requirements, and installation scope.
Guides building GPU-accelerated visual effects in React / Next.js with the `shaders` npm package from shaders.com — declarative `<Shader>` component trees, composition (stacking, nesting, blend modes, masking), reactive props, dynamic prop drivers (`auto-animate`, `mouse-position`, `map`), shape (SDF) effects, color space, performance budget (RTT / generator vs filter), and SSR safety. Use when the user asks to add a "shader background", "WebGPU effect", "aurora / plasma / swirl / glass / cursor-trail" hero, mentions shaders.com, the `shaders/react` package, the `<Shader>` component, or wants animated GPU-rendered visuals in a React or Next.js app. Not for raw GLSL / WebGL / Three.js / react-three-fiber work — those use different APIs.
