Rotary Knob
A realistic rotary knob control you can twist with your mouse or finger. A satisfying, tactile web component for adjusting values.
About Rotary Knob
Grab the knob and twist. That's the whole invitation. Rotary Knob is a single, finely crafted dial you control by clicking and dragging with a mouse or swiping with a finger — and the motion feels genuinely weighted, the way a real hardware knob does when you turn it between your fingers. There's no score, no objective, just the quiet satisfaction of a control that responds exactly as you'd expect.
It's part of a small tradition of interactive web toys that exist purely to feel good to use. Developers might recognize it as a polished web component worth borrowing; everyone else will just enjoy spinning it for a minute or two without needing a reason.
Works best with a mouse for precise control, though touch input is fully supported — drag up to increase the value, drag down to decrease it.
How to use
• Use mouse to drag and rotate the knob clockwise or counterclockwise to change its value • Touch devices: drag with your finger to rotate the knob • Keyboard: use arrow keys or other navigation keys when the knob is focused (click to focus) • The knob rotates to match your input and displays different positions based on its current value • Each knob can have different ranges and step values depending on how it's configured • The knob provides visual feedback by rotating its graphics as you interact with it • Some knobs may have limited rotation ranges while others can spin continuously • The current value is typically displayed nearby or can be read by checking connected output fields • Focus on a knob by clicking it, then use keyboard controls for precise adjustments
