Overview
Text that decodes itself through a burst of random glyphs: on hover for nav links and labels, on load for big glitchy headlines, or once when it scrolls into view.
Uses GSAP's ScrambleTextPlugin with a short reveal delay, so the scramble settles left to right. Screen readers get the real text once, not every frame of the effect.

GSAP Scramble Text Hover Effect — FAQ
01Can I change the characters?
Pass any string to chars: "01" for a binary look, or a set of symbols.
02Why does the width jitter a little?
Proportional fonts change width as letters change. A monospaced font, or tabular numbers, keeps it perfectly still.
