## About

A language picker with the world under it, drawn in the letters each place writes in. Pick a language and the globe turns there, and its country lights up in orange, spelling the greeting.

## Details

- Spin the globe and let go: it settles on the nearest language. Tap a country to choose it.
- Search by language, country, code or the greeting itself, and the globe turns under each match as you move through the list.
- Pass your own `locales` with a greeting and a point on the map, or use the 37 it comes with.
- Set `auto` to open on the visitor's browser language; `onChange` hands you the one they pick.
- Works from the keyboard and follows light and dark. With reduced motion the globe moves straight to each place.

## Install

```bash
npx shadcn add https://detentui.com/r/hello
```
