# or
yarn add reactjs-particle-animation
Usage
Check out the demo in the example folder.
import React, { Component } from 'react'
import ParticleAnimation from 'reactjs-particle-animation'
class Example extends Component {
render () {
return (
<ParticleAnimation />
)
}
}
Props
Property | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
numParticles |
number | 400 | Number of particles to use. |
interactive |
boolean | true | Whether or not animation responds to mouse hover. |
color |
object | { r: 158, g: 217, b: 249, a: 255 } | Base rgba particle color. |
background |
object | { r: 255, g: 255, b: 255, a: 255 } | Background rgba color. |
lineWidth |
number | 1.0 | Connecting line width. |
particleRadius |
number | 1.0 | Scaling factor for particle radii. |
particleSpeed |
number | 1.0 | Scaling factor for particle speed. |
... |
... | undefined | Any other props are applied to the root canvas element. |
Note that for colors, rgba
are all floating point numbers between 0 and 255 (inclusive).
Note that the canvas size will automatically be inferred based on available space via react-sizeme, so it should be really easy to use this component as a fullscreen background as in the demo.

- particles.js - Older particle animation. Oddly enough, I developed this animation in Java back in 2008, though the two animations are AFAIK unrelated to each other.
- Intersection.Aggregate - Jared Tarbell's original processing work from 2004 which this animation was inspired by (e.g., visualizing the intersections between circles moving about randomly).
