Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Particle System

Examples

Properties

This component exposes only a subset of the ShaderParticleEngine API.

| Property | Description | Default Value | |--------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------| | preset | Preset configuration. Possible values are: default, dust, snow, rain. | default | | maxAge | The particle's maximum age in seconds. | 6 | | positionSpread | Describes this emitter's position variance on a per-particle basis. | 0 0 0 | | type | The default distribution this emitter should use to control its particle's spawn position and force behaviour. Possible values are 1 (box), 2 (sphere), 3 (disc) | 1 (box) | | rotationAxis | Describes this emitter's axis of rotation. Possible values are x, y and z. | x | | rotationAngle | The angle of rotation, given in radians. Dust preset is 3.14. | 0 | | rotationAngleSpread | The amount of variance in the angle of rotation per-particle, given in radians. | 0 | | accelerationValue | Describes this emitter's base acceleration. | 0, -10, 0 | | accelerationSpread | Describes this emitter's acceleration variance on a per-particle basis. | 10 0 10 | | velocityValue | Describes this emitter's base velocity. | 0 25 0 | | velocitySpread | Describes this emitter's acceleration variance on a per-particle basis. | 10 7.5 10 | | dragValue | Number between 0 and 1 describing drag applied to all particles. | 0 | | dragSpread | Number describing drag variance on a per-particle basis. | 0 | | dragRandomise | WHen a particle is re-spawned, whether it's drag should be re-randomised or not. Can incur a performance hit. | false | | color | Describes a particle's color. This property is a "value-over-lifetime" property, meaning an array of values can be given to describe specific value changes over a particle's lifetime. | #0000FF,#FF0000 | | size | Describes a particle's size. | 1 | | direction | The direction of the emitter. If value is 1, emitter will start at beginning of particle's lifecycle. If value is -1, emitter will start at end of particle's lifecycle and work it's way backwards. | 1 | | duration | The duration in seconds that this emitter should live for. If not specified, the emitter will emit particles indefinitely. | null | | enabled | When true the emitter will emit particles, when false it will not. This value can be changed dynamically during a scene. While particles are emitting, they will disappear immediately when set to false. | true | | particleCount | The total number of particles this emitter will hold. NOTE: this is not the number of particles emitted in a second, or anything like that. The number of particles emitted per-second is calculated by particleCount / maxAge (approximately!) | 1000 | | texture | The texture used by this emitter. | ./images/star2.png | | randomise | When a particle is re-spawned, whether it's position should be re-randomised or not. Can incur a performance hit. | false | | opacity | Either a single number to describe the opacity of a particle. | 1 | | blending | The blending mode of the particles. Possible values are 0 (no blending), 1 (normal), 2 (additive), 3 (subtractive), 4 (multiply) | 2 | | maxParticleCount | | 250000 |
