# Arch

> Vitro pack: a thick glass arch standing on a glass plinth, with a glossy tube set into the arch like neon in acrylic and a matte ball rolling to and fro through it, a ring round its middle showing the roll. The plinth mirrors the ball and the tube. A tap rolls the ball right out the front and back again. Raymarched in WebGL.

## Install

One-time setup (needs a subscription):

1. Add the registry to the project's `components.json`: `{"@assembli":{"url":"https://www.assembli.design/r/{name}.json","headers":{"Authorization":"Bearer ${ASSEMBLI_API_KEY}"}}}` (merge into `"registries"`).
2. Put an API key from https://www.assembli.design/account in `.env.local` as `ASSEMBLI_API_KEY=asm_…`.

Then install with the shadcn CLI (writes `components/vitro-arch/vitro-arch.tsx` and installs dependencies):

npx shadcn@latest add @assembli/vitro-arch
```
