Frequently Asked Questions
Can I customize the glow color of the Obsidian Flare Button to match my specific brand palette?
Yes, the Obsidian Flare Button is built using CSS custom properties, allowing you to easily adjust the primary glow, flare intensity, and glass-like core colors to align with your brand's visual identity.
Is the Obsidian Flare Button compatible with all modern web browsers?
The component is fully compatible with all modern browsers that support standard CSS features like backdrop-filter and CSS transitions. It includes graceful fallbacks for older browsers, ensuring the button remains functional even if the advanced glass-morphism effects are not supported.
How does the button handle responsiveness and touch interactions on mobile devices?
The Obsidian Flare Button is designed to be fully responsive. On mobile devices, the hover-based glow effects are automatically triggered during the 'active' or tap state, providing a high-tech tactile response that feels natural on touch screens.
Do I need to import any JavaScript libraries to get the triple-layer animation working?
No, the Obsidian Flare Button is a pure CSS solution. It achieves its multi-layer depth and reactive pulsing effects entirely through CSS animations and pseudo-elements, ensuring zero impact on your application's JavaScript bundle size.
Can this button be integrated into component libraries like React, Vue, or Tailwind CSS?
Absolutely. Because it relies on standard CSS architecture, you can easily wrap it in a framework-specific component or use it alongside utility-first frameworks like Tailwind CSS by extending your configuration to include the custom obsidian gradients and animations.
