## What it is
Magic UI is an open-source library of 150+ animated React components and effects built with TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and Motion (Framer Motion). Components are designed to be copied and pasted into apps, serving as a companion to shadcn/ui.

## Use cases
- add animated components to a react app
- build a beautiful landing page quickly
- find copy-paste ui components for tailwind
- animated text and background effects for nextjs
- shadcn ui companion components
- marquee bento grid and hero sections
- scroll-based animations for marketing sites

## When to choose
- you use React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS and want polished animated UI without building from scratch
- you want copy-paste components you fully own in your codebase, in the shadcn/ui style
- you are building landing pages, portfolios, or marketing sites that need visual flair

## When to avoid
- you need a full component framework with a package dependency and theming system like MUI or Chakra
- your project does not use React or Tailwind CSS
- you need complex data-heavy application components like data grids or charts

- artifact type: library
