# Updated: Beams

React Bits fixed its [Beams background](<https://reactbits.dev/backgrounds/beams>) so it no longer renders a blank canvas under React StrictMode. That affects Next.js and Vite projects in development, where StrictMode is on by default.

Beams is the glossy ribbon background that ripples in the dark and catches light that follows your cursor. You can install it with npx shadcn@latest add @react-bits/Beams-TS-TW, and there are JavaScript and TypeScript versions, each with plain CSS or Tailwind.
