  const springX = useSpring(x, { stiffness: 300, damping: 20 })
  const springY = useSpring(y, { stiffness: 300, damping: 20 })

  const handleMouseMove = (e: React.MouseEvent<HTMLButtonElement>) => {
    if (!ref.current) return
    const rect = ref.current.getBoundingClientRect()
    const centerX = rect.left + rect.width / 2
    const centerY = rect.top + rect.height / 2
    x.set((e.clientX - centerX) * 0.3)
