Starfield Depth Drift

A quiet, layered field of drifting stars that gives any dark section real depth — near points move faster and glow brighter, far points barely shift. Reads as premium and spacious, not busy, and never distracts from content laid over the top.

Files written

velocityx drops these into your project:

• components/velocity/starfield-depth-drift/StarfieldDepthDrift.tsx

Peer dependencies

react — nothing else. Zero external dependencies is the point.

Theming

Colours come from the primary-* / accent-* Tailwind scales, so this drops into a project that is not Velocity without dragging our brand in. Install the contract once:

velocityx theme

Then set your whole brand in one place — raw RGB channels, not hex (a hex here silently breaks every opacity variant):

:root {
  --vx-brand: custom;
  --vx-primary-600: 220 38 38;
}

There is no component-level font-family anywhere in the library — your font cascade wins.

Licence

Commercial, for the duration of an active Velocity X subscription. The source is served by the licence-gated endpoint, never by the public CDN.
