React + Tailwind CSS v4: install with one command, or copy the file. Your options are already in it.

npx shadcn@latest add "/r/tooltip.json"

Run it in your project root. It writes components/tooltip.tsx with the options you set here. Needs Tailwind CSS v4 and a project set up for the shadcn CLI (npx shadcn@latest init).
