Rating examples

Real renders of the hearts rating — each one is the same component with different property values, and the API payload below each preview reproduces it exactly.

Recipe favorite score

A 4.5-heart community rating for a food blog recipe card.

API overrides for this example

{
  "score.iconShape": "heart",
  "score.activeColor": "#EF4444",
  "score.value": 4.5
}

Lives left in a streak email

Two of five hearts remaining — a gamified nudge on a dark canvas.

{
  "score.iconShape": "heart",
  "score.activeColor": "#EF4444",
  "score.value": 2,
  "score.inactiveColor": "#374151"
}

Use it dynamically via the API

Set '<key>.value' (or just '<key>') to the score for each render; max, colors and border props are overridable too.
