Grow

v1.0.2Updated 22 Sept 2026

Fades its child in while scaling it from 0.95 to 1 — a subtle, restrained entrance that reads as 'appearing in place' rather than flying in. A `transformOrigin` prop anchors the scale, so a popover can grow out of the corner nearest its trigger. Gentler than Zoom, which scales all the way from 0.
