Below is the complete list of possible props and their options:

▶︎ indicates the default value if there's one

tiltEnable: boolean ▶︎ true
Boolean to enable/disable tilt effect.

tiltReverse: boolean ▶︎ false
Reverse the tilt direction.

tiltMaxAngleX: number ▶︎ 20
Range: 0 - 90
Max tilt rotation (degrees) on x axis.

tiltMaxAngleY: number ▶︎ 20
Range: 0 - 90
Max tilt rotation (degrees) on y axis.

tiltAxis: Axis | null ▶︎ null
Axis = 'x' | 'y'
Which axis should be enabled. If null both are enabled.

tiltAngleXManual: number | null} ▶︎ null
Manual tilt rotation (degrees) on x axis.

tiltAngleYManual: number | null} ▶︎ null
Manual tilt rotation (degrees) on y axis.

glareEnable: boolean ▶︎ false
Boolean to enable/disable glare effect.

glareMaxOpacity: number ▶︎ 0.7
Range: 0 - 1
The maximum glare opacity (0.5 = 50%, 1 = 100%, etc.).

glareColor: string ▶︎ #ffffff
Set color of glare effect.

glarePosition: GlarePosition ▶︎ bottom
GlarePosition = 'top' | 'right' | 'bottom' | 'left' | 'all'
Set position of glare effect.

glareReverse: boolean ▶︎ false
Reverse the glare direction.

scale: number ▶︎ 1
Scale of the component (1.5 = 150%, 2 = 200%, etc.).

perspective: number ▶︎ 1000
The perspective property defines how far the object (wrapped/child component) is away from the user.
The lower the more extreme the tilt gets.

flipVertically: boolean ▶︎ false
Boolean to enable/disable vertical flip of component.

flipHorizontally: boolean ▶︎ false
Boolean to enable/disable horizontal flip of component.

reset: boolean ▶︎ true
If the effects has to be reset on onLeave event.

transitionEasing: string ▶︎ cubic-bezier(.03,.98,.52,.99)
Easing of the transition when manipulating the component.

transitionSpeed: number ▶︎ 400
Speed of the transition when manipulating the component.

trackOnWindow: boolean ▶︎ false
Track mouse and touch events on the whole window.

gyroscope: boolean ▶︎ false
Boolean to enable/disable device orientation detection.

onMove: Function => (tiltAngleX: number, tiltAngleY: number, tiltAngleXPercentage: number, tiltAngleYPercentage: number, glareAngle: number, glareOpacity: number, eventType: string | null)
Gets triggered when user moves on the component.

onEnter: Function => (eventType: string | null)
Gets triggered when user enters the component.

onLeave: Function => (eventType: string | null)
Gets triggered when user leaves the component.

Gyroscope - Device Orientation

Please keep in mind that detecting device orientation is currently experimental technology.
Check the browser compatibility before using this in production.
A few takeaways when using device orientation event:

• always use secure origins (such as https)
• it doesn't work in all browsers when using it in cross-origin <iframe> element
• Chrome, Firefox, Safari do not handle the angles the same way (on some axes the directions are reversed)

Development

Easily set up a local development environment!
