Modern glass UI effects inspired by DesignCode UI.
## Agent Workflow (MANDATORY)
Before implementation:
1. **fuse-ai-pilot:explore-codebase** - Check existing glass patterns
2. **fuse-ai-pilot:research-expert** - Latest backdrop-filter support
After: Run **fuse-ai-pilot:sniper** for validation.
## Core Technique
```tsx
/* Base glassmorphism */
className="bg-white/10 backdrop-blur-xl border border-white/20 rounded-2xl"
/* With colored shadow */
className="bg-white/10 backdrop-blur-xl border border-white/20
shadow-xl shadow-primary/10"
```
## Blur Levels
| Level | Class | Use Case |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Subtle | `backdrop-blur-sm` | Overlays on clean backgrounds |
| Medium | `backdrop-blur-md` | Cards, modals |
| Strong | `backdrop-blur-xl` | Primary surfaces |
| Maximum | `backdrop-blur-3xl` | Hero sections |
## Opacity Layers (DesignCode Pattern)
```tsx
/* Light mode */
<div className="bg-white/80 backdrop-blur-xl">
/* Dark mode */
<div className="bg-black/40 backdrop-blur-xl">
/* Adaptive (CSS variables) */
<div className="bg-[var(--glass-bg)] backdrop-blur-xl">
```
## Layered Glass Stack
```tsx
/* Multiple glass layers for depth */
<div className="relative">
{/* Background layer - most blur */}
<div className="absolute inset-0 bg-white/5 backdrop-blur-3xl rounded-3xl" />
{/* Middle layer */}
<div className="absolute inset-2 bg-white/10 backdrop-blur-xl rounded-2xl" />
{/* Content layer - least blur */}
<div className="relative bg-white/20 backdrop-blur-md rounded-xl p-6">
{children}
</div>
</div>
```
## Colored Glass
```tsx
/* Primary tinted glass */
className="bg-primary/10 backdrop-blur-xl border border-primary/20"
/* Accent glow */
className="bg-accent/5 backdrop-blur-xl shadow-lg shadow-accent/20"
```
## Border Techniques
```tsx
/* Subtle inner glow */
className="border border-white/20"
/* Gradient border (pseudo-element) */
className="relative before:absolute before:inset-0
