Split-flap board
A mechanical departure board that folds each changed tile through its drum until the next studio fact lands.
Where it earns its place
A small, tactile status line: pricing, availability or a headline metric in a header, a pricing band or an event page.
What we changed
- Tiles walk forward through a fixed drum order (at most seven cards) instead of flashing random characters, which is how a real board moves.
- Rebuilt the fold with framer-motion flaps keyed per card, replacing the global CSS keyframes and the glossy gradients and text shadows.
- The board sizes itself with container units, so twelve tiles always span the row from a 300px card to the full stage.
- Added a pause control for the auto-advancing content and a caption that says what each phrase means; reduced motion swaps phrases instantly.
- Kept the original's best idea: only tiles whose character changes flip, with a left-to-right stagger.
