## Description

Fuwari Block Effects adds subtle scroll animations and gradient text to WordPress
core blocks. “Fuwari” is a Japanese word for something soft and floaty — exactly
how your content will appear.

No extra libraries, no settings screens. Select a block, pick an effect in the sidebar,
done.

**Animations** (play once when the block scrolls into view, or replay on every re-
entry with the Repeat toggle):

 * **Fade Up / Fade Down / Fade In** — classic entrance animations
 * **Box Reveal** — a colored box covers the element, then slides away to reveal
   it. Choose the slide direction (right / left / up / down) and the box color (
   Purple / Orange / Blue / Dark)

**Gradient text** — three built-in gradients (Purple, Orange, Blue), plus a Custom
option where you set the start and end colors with hex values.

**Alternating columns** — an option for the Columns block that reverses column order
on desktop, useful for text/image zigzag layouts.

Supported blocks — animations: Paragraph, Heading, Quote, Button, Image, Group, 
Columns, Cover, Gallery, List. Gradient text: Paragraph, Heading, Quote, Button.
Column layout: Columns.

#### Built to be safe

 * Content stays visible if JavaScript is disabled or fails to load
 * Respects the `prefers-reduced-motion` user setting
 * Falls back gracefully on browsers without IntersectionObserver
 * No data collection, no external requests, no tracking

#### Customization

Override the Box Reveal color from your theme’s Additional CSS:

    ```
    body { --fuwari-reveal-color: #f5576c; }
    ```

## Installation

 1. Install and activate the plugin.
 2. Select a supported block in the editor.
 3. Choose an animation or gradient in the “Block Effects” panel in the block sidebar.

## FAQ

### Does it work with any theme?

Yes. The plugin adds CSS classes to blocks, so it works with both block themes and
classic themes.

### What happens if I deactivate the plugin?

Nothing breaks. The CSS classes remain in your content but simply have no effect
until you reactivate.

### Why doesn’t the animation play for some visitors?

If the visitor’s OS is set to “reduce motion”, the plugin intentionally shows content
immediately without animation, for accessibility.
