Meet Plume, a free real-time fluid cursor for Framer. FOLLOW, LIKE AND COMMENT THE WORD PLUME. To get your free copy!

Move your mouse and the page answers with ink, smoke or colour that swirls and fades like real liquid. It's a true GPU fluid simulation, not a looping video or a canned animation.

One component, endless moods:

• Aurora: shifting rainbow trails for dark sites

• Ink: dark ink spreading over paper on light sites

• Smoke: soft white plumes that drift and curl

Built for real websites:

• Full page or confined to a single card or section

• Any colour or colour style, plus four blend modes

• Swirl, force, radius, fade and intensity, all in the properties panel

• Sleeps when the cursor stops, so there's no idle GPU drain

• Respects reduced-motion settings

No code. Drop it in, pick a look, publish.

A true GPU fluid simulation instead of a looping video is what makes this special. The fact that it sleeps when the cursor stops and respects reduced motion shows it was built for real sites, not just demos.

Thank you, that's exactly what I was going for! A looping video always looks the same. A real simulation reacts to how you move, so no two trails are ever alike.

I also wanted it to be safe to drop into a real site. When it's idle, it doesn't use any GPU or CPU. It ignores input...
