tsParticles Firefly Preset

tsParticles preset for a mouse trail made with small fading particles like little fireflies.

Sample

How to use it

CDN / Vanilla JS / jQuery

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@tsparticles/preset-firefly@3/tsparticles.preset.firefly.bundle.min.js"></script>

Usage

Once the scripts are loaded you can set up tsParticles like this:

(async () => {
  await loadFireflyPreset(tsParticles);

  await tsParticles.load({
    id: "tsparticles",
    options: {
      preset: "firefly",
    },
  });
})();

Customization

Important ⚠️ You can override all the options defining the properties like in any standard tsParticles installation.

tsParticles.load({
  id: "tsparticles",
  options: {
    particles: {
      shape: {
        type: "square", // starting from v2, this require the square shape script
      },
    },
    preset: "firefly",
  },
});

Like in the sample above, the circles will be replaced by squares.

Frameworks with a tsParticles component library

Checkout the documentation in the component library repository and call the loadFireflyPreset function instead of loadFull, loadSlim or similar functions.

The options shown above are valid for all the component libraries.
