What you can build with it
A primary call to action on a dark hero, with a light circling its edge. A get started button for a studio, agency or software site. A single standout action on an otherwise quiet page.
Props
label (text); href (url); size (select: default, large)
States shown
Circling without end; hover lifts it and slides the chevron; focus, active. Reduced motion: the light stands still at one angle.
How to change it
Content and options are 3 props in the component's settings panel. Colour, type, spacing and radius follow your Automatic.css settings, so a change to the site's palette or scale changes this too. For anything else, edit the classes in the Style Manager, starting with .button-row, .glow-button, .glow-button-orbit.
ACSS tokens used
–accent (falls back to –primary), –white, –black, –text-s, –text-m, –radius-circle, focus tokens, –transition; –ep-angle and the ep-* keyframes from the Motion stylesheet.
