# Shimmer Sweep (`.sds-shimmer-sweep`)

A light shimmer sweeps across (loop). Text animation in SDS Motion Forge v5.0.0. It loops continuously as soon as the class is applied.

## Use it

```html
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@salkomdesignstudio/sds-motion-forge/dist/categories/text.min.css" />

<h1 class="sds-shimmer-sweep">Shimmer Sweep</h1>
```

## How it works

Plays as soon as the class is applied, looping continuously. It animates a gradient sweep. `--sds-duration-slower` controls the speed — override either on the element or :root (the sds-fast/sds-slow modifier classes do exactly that).
