Magnetic Hover Checkbox in Tailwind CSS + JavaScript

The box leans toward your pointer as it crosses the row and springs back when you leave. The script writes only two custom properties, which v4 reads with translate-x-(--tcb26-dx); the label now follows at half strength for a layered parallax, and updates are batched per frame.

What changed in the port

Which parts became utilities, which stayed CSS, and why.

  • transform:translate(var(--dx),var(--dy)) became translate-x-(--tcb26-dx) translate-y-(--tcb26-dy); the variables are namespaced so they can't collide.
  • The script finds its box via [aria-hidden] and its root via data-tcb26 — no class selectors.
  • UI upgrade from the CSS original: the label follows at half strength for a parallax feel, rows tint on hover, and pointer updates are rAF-batched instead of writing styles on every event.
  • UI upgrade: the empty border rose from #c2c0d8 (1.8:1) to 3:1.

## JavaScript
```js
(() => {
  if (matchMedia('(hover: none)').matches || matchMedia('(prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)').matches) return;
  const MAX = 6;
  document.querySelectorAll('[data-tcb26]').forEach((root) => {
    if (root.dataset.wired) return;
    root.dataset.wired = '1';
    root.querySelectorAll('[data-magnet]').forEach((row) => {
      const box = row.querySelector('[aria-hidden]');
      let raf = 0, x = 0, y = 0;
      const write = () => {
        raf = 0;
        row.style.setProperty('--tcb26-dx', x.toFixed(1) + 'px');
        row.style.setProperty('--tcb26-dy', y.toFixed(1) + 'px');
      };
      row.addEventListener('pointermove', (e) => {
        const r = box.getBoundingClientRect();
        x = Math.max(-MAX, Math.min(MAX, (e.clientX - (r.left + r.width / 2)) / 3));
        y = Math.max(-MAX, Math.min(MAX, (e.clientY - (r.top + r.height / 2)) / 3));
        if (!raf) raf = requestAnimationFrame(write);
      });
      row.addEventListener('pointerleave', () => { x = 0; y = 0; if (!raf) raf = requestAnimationFrame(write); });
    });
  });
})();
```

How this works

Variables are the interface. JS sets --tcb26-dx/dy on the row; Tailwind's parenthesis syntax reads them as translate values. No class names or inline transforms from script.

Two layers. The box moves the full distance; the label moves half (translate-x-[calc(var(--tcb26-dx)/2)]), giving a subtle depth.

Cheap. pointermove can fire 120× a second; updates are coalesced into one write per animation frame.

Make it yours

  • Strength: MAX (max lean in px) and the /3 divisor.
  • Springiness: the ease-[cubic-bezier(.3,1.2,.4,1)] curve.
  • Label parallax off: remove the label's translate utilities.
  • Apply to buttons: the same variables work on any element.

Gotchas — read before shipping

  • Skip the effect on touch (hover:none) and for prefers-reduced-motion — the script checks both.
  • Magnetic motion must never move the hit target far — keep MAX small.
  • The script is idempotent via data-wired.
