Hover Engraving

Cards

About

A frosted tooltip-like pill that reveals a block's metadata (kind, timestamps, derived tags, and a status LED) after the pointer dwells on it for 420ms, useful for annotating list items or notes without cluttering the UI.

Built with React and Tailwind. Copy the prompt and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor or Lovable: your agent adds Hover Engraving to your project and fits it to your theme.

Code

How Hover Engraving is used: the demo's code. The component's own source comes with a free account.

import * as React from "react";
