Why it works

Grid feels alive

The spotlight tracks your cursor across the entire grid, illuminating borders as you move. It unifies separate cards into a single interactive surface. Vercel, Linear, and Supabase all use variants of this pattern for their feature grids. The subtle glow signals interactivity without screaming for attention.
