AI Prompt
Create a translucent liquid glass card with soft backdrop blur, subtle refraction, bright rim highlights, inner shadow, and a faint noise layer. Keep text crisp and avoid overusing blur on mobile.
Tailwind notes
Combine backdrop-blur, translucent background, border-white/30, shadow layers, and a pseudo-element for rim light.
Performance notes
Backdrop filters can be expensive on mobile. Use this on a few key surfaces, not on every tile.
