Scramble Link Button

Overview

Scramble Link Button gives a button or link a small, useful moment of feedback: a link scrambles briefly before settling.

Use it where a CTA needs to feel responsive and intentional, not theatrical. A button should confirm action, state, or direction; it should not become a tiny stage play that delays the click.

The main risk is keeping the markup honest. Use genuine button and anchor elements, preserve focus, fire instantly, and make loading and disabled states obvious. The animation decorates the action; it is never the action.

Usage

Component Code

Example Production Use Case

Use this as button-interaction implementation guidance. Verify the shipped element semantics, anchor/button mode, disabled and loading states, focus-visible behavior, keyboard activation, and reduced-motion handling before relying on exact props, defaults, imports, or installation steps.

Best Used For

• Technical brand links where a fast decode effect supports the visual tone.
• Secondary CTAs that can settle instantly before the user loses the label.
• Scramble Link Button adds feedback to an action without weakening semantics, focus, or activation speed.

Not For

Not for destructive actions, unclear states, or places where animation hides the label or delays activation.

Performance Budget

Keep feedback fast, avoid layout-triggering letter movement, and preserve instant activation.

Accessibility and Mobile

Use real buttons or anchors, visible focus-visible styles, and clear loading/disabled states. Touch targets should stay large enough on mobile.

Common Mistakes

• Building Scramble Link Button with divs instead of real buttons or links.
• Hiding the label during hover.
• Forgetting loading and disabled states.
