Content Upgrade Gate Card
An inline named-resource email gate for blog and docs pages — it states the specific deliverable rather than a generic newsletter ask, and swaps to a real download link once captured.

$ velocityx add content-upgrade-gate-card@1.0.0

Built for react.
Needs react already installed
as a peer dependency.
An Astro-only project needs @astrojs/react wired up first — this won't run on its own in plain Astro.

Using it
The smallest call that compiles — required props only. The import is
written for your own file at src/components/Example.jsx;
adjust the relative import if yours sits elsewhere.
Everything optional is in the table above, with its default.
import ContentUpgradeGateCard from './velocity/content-upgrade-gate-card/ContentUpgradeGateCard';
export default function Example() {
return (
<ContentUpgradeGateCard
resourceId='resourceId'
title='title'
downloadHref='downloadHref'
/>
);
}Built from Content Upgrade Gate Card's own prop signature and the path the CLI installs it to, so it can't drift from either.

- Dark mode
- Carries its own dark: variants
Theming
This component paints from 11 steps of
your theme scale — no hardcoded colours, and no font-family of
its own, so your type cascade wins. Override the variables and it follows.
accent-400accent-500accent-600primary-200primary-300primary-400primary-500primary-600primary-700primary-800primary-950Get the Velocity preset and CSS theme from the public source guide. The CLI theme command is not available on npm yet.
File this creates
The CLI writes this path into your project — nothing
else moves. Paths are under your source root, which defaults to
src/; pass
--dest if yours is elsewhere.

Content Upgrade Gate Card — questions
How do I install Content Upgrade Gate Card?
Run velocityx add content-upgrade-gate-card . The CLI writes the source straight into your project — it is not a runtime package dependency.
Do I need a licence for Content Upgrade Gate Card?
Yes. It is part of the lifetime library — buy access at https://aidxn.com/shop/velocity-x-component-library/, authenticate once, and install it. Your lifetime licence includes future component updates.
Can I edit Content Upgrade Gate Card after installing it?
Yes — the files are yours once written. The CLI compares its lockfile hash before upgrades and refuses to overwrite code you changed.
Does Content Upgrade Gate Card ship JavaScript to my users?
Yes. It runs in the browser (useId, useState), so it needs to hydrate — in Astro, give it a client:* directive.
Will Content Upgrade Gate Card match my brand colours?
Yes. It paints entirely from your theme scale — 11 steps of primary-* / accent-* — with no hardcoded hex values and no font-family of its own. Override the theme CSS variables and it follows your design system instead of ours.
Does Content Upgrade Gate Card work on mobile?
It carries its own responsive rules at the sm breakpoint, so it re-flows rather than relying on the page around it to do the work.
Which version of Content Upgrade Gate Card should I install?
There are 2 published versions, and the default install gives you the current one. Pin an older one with velocityx add content-upgrade-gate-card@<version> , or move between them later with velocityx upgrade content-upgrade-gate-card — downgrades work too.
Does Content Upgrade Gate Card pull in any dependencies?
No external ones. Every component in the library is built with react/react-dom or plain Astro only — no GSAP, Radix, Swiper or Headless UI — which is what makes dropping it into an existing project safe.
