## Install

<InstallCommand command="npx hyperframes add hw-callout-circle" item="hw-callout-circle" />

That writes `compositions/components/hw-callout-circle.html`, plus 1 supporting file under `assets/fonts/`.

## Paste it into your composition

Open `compositions/components/hw-callout-circle.html` and copy what is inside into your own composition.

A component has no size or duration of its own. It takes both from the composition
you paste it into.
