## What it is
ShaderGradient is a React library built on Three.js and react-three-fiber that renders customizable, animated 3D moving gradients. It also ships as a Figma plugin and a Framer component, letting designers embed the same gradients in design tools.

## Use cases
- add animated 3D gradient backgrounds to a React or Next.js site
- create moving gradient hero sections with WebGL shaders
- use the same animated gradient in Figma and Framer designs
- customize gradient colors, speed, and distortion via props or query strings
- render shader-based backgrounds without writing GLSL

## When to choose
- you want beautiful animated gradients in React with Three.js under the hood
- you need design-tool parity across Figma, Framer, and code
- you prefer declarative props over hand-writing shader code

## When to avoid
- you need a static gradient image or CSS-only solution
- your project cannot take WebGL or Three.js dependencies
- you rely on the legacy v1 bundled store/UI (use shadergradient-old instead)
