           Frequently Asked Questions
        

        

          
      

        
          What is Neumorphism in UI design?
          
            
          
        
        

          Neumorphism (Soft UI) is a visual design trend where interface elements appear to be extruded from or pressed into the background. It is achieved by matching the element background exactly to its parent container and applying dual light and dark box-shadows.
        

      

    
      

        
          How do concave and convex neumorphic surfaces work?
          
            
          
        
        

          While flat neumorphism uses a solid background, concave and convex surfaces apply subtle linear gradients angled at 145 degrees between slightly lighter and darker shades of the base color, creating the physical illusion of curved or curved-in tactile plastic.
        

      

    
      

        
          Can I use these neumorphic styles in Tailwind CSS?
          
            
          
        
        

          Yes. Our Tailwind exporter creates arbitrary utility classes combining rounded-[...], bg-[...], and shadow-[...] with multi-stop box shadows that you can drop directly into your markup.
        

      

    
      

        
          Does neumorphism work on dark backgrounds?
          
            
          
        
        

          Yes. Try our 'Dark Obsidian' preset. The lighting engine accurately calculates specular highlights and ambient shadows for dark backgrounds as well as bright light surfaces.
