Railway's hero animation — slow-drift parallax clouds and CLI snap, decoded

Celestial landing page hero featuring slow-drift parallax clouds and a snappy CLI-style character loop on button hover.

Layered dark clouds drift across a starry background with constant parallax. Hovering the 'Deploy' button triggers a rhythmic 4-frame terminal character cycle in the label, providing a technical, interactive feel.

Choreography, beat by beat

  1. Ambient cloud layers drift horizontally at staggered speeds (parallax)
  2. Subtle grain overlay creates a constant 'twinkle' across the nebula
  3. Cursor hovers over the purple 'Deploy' button
  4. Button label appends a cycling terminal character sequence ('|', '\', '-', '/')
  5. Character loop continues at a steady 125ms rhythm during hover
