React Native Particles WebGL

A 2D/3D particle library built with react-native, react-native-web, Three.js and WebGL

react-native-particles-webgl was ported from react-particles-webgl which was inspired by the popular particles.js library and built with react-three-fiber to offer smooth 60FPS high-count particle fields in both two and three dimensions.

Config Generator https://timellenberger.com/particles

Code Sandbox Demos

npm NPM PRs Welcome Travis (.org)

2D "Particles.js" Canvas 3D Particle Field

✨ Features

  • Simple drop-in usage, plays nice with SSR (the demo is running Next.js)
  • Smooth 60FPS particles and lines via WebGL
  • Full Three.js OrbitControls for extreme (optional) scene interactivity
  • Highly customizable particles and lines

Install

yarn add react-native-particles-webgl three

Usage

import React from 'react';
import ParticleField from 'react-native-particles-webgl';

/**
 * The default configuation for the ParticleField component
 *
 * Any option passed in via props will overwrite the default config
 */
const config = {
  // Display reference cube, useful for orienting the field
  showCube: true,
  // '2D' or '3D' particle field
  dimension: '3D',
  // 'bounce' or 'passthru'
  // 'bounce' will make particles behave like balls thrown at a wall when hitting canvas boundaries
  // 'passthru' particles will disappear after hitting canvas boundaries and be added back into the scene elsewhere
  boundaryType: 'bounce',
  // Maximum velocity of particles
  velocity: 2,
  // Toggles antialiasing -- must be set during construction, cannot be changed after initial render
  // Slight performance optimization to set false, although lines will appear more jagged
  antialias: false,
  // Min/Max multipliers which constraint how particles move in each direction
  // The default values here allow for particles to move in completely random x, y, z directions
  // See the "Snowfall" preset for an example of how to use these values
  direction: {
    xMin: -1,
    xMax: 1,
    yMin: -1,
    yMax: 1,
    zMin: -1,

  },
  lines: {

    transparency: 0.9,
    // true/false limit the maximum number of line connections per particle
    limitConnections: true,
    maxConnections: 20,
    // Minimum distance needed to draw line between to particles
    minDistance: 150,
    // true/false render lines
    visible: true
  },
  particles: {
    // 'rainbow' or 'solid' or 'multi' color of particles
    colorMode: 'rainbow',
    // Color of particles if colorMode: 'solid', must be hex color
    color: '#3FB568',
    // Colors of particles if colorMode: 'multi', must be hex color
    colors: undefined, // ['#771112']
    // Positions of particles
    positions: undefined, // [{x: 20, y: 5, z: 3}],
    // Transparency of particles
    count: 500, // or positions.length above
    // The minimum particle size
    transparency: 0.9,

    // The exact number of particles to render
    minSize: 10,

    visible: true
  },
  // x, y, z position of camera
  cameraPosition: [0, 0, 750],
  /*
   * The camera rig is comprised of Three.js OrbitControls
   * Pass any valid OrbitControls properties, consult docs for more info
   *
   * https://threejs.org/docs/#examples/controls/OrbitControls
   */
  cameraControls: {
    // Enable or disable all camera interaction (click, drag, touch etc)
    enabled: true,
    // Enable or disable smooth dampening of camera movement
    enableDamping: true,
    dampingFactor: 0.2,
    // Enable or disable zooming in/out of camera
    enableZoom: true,
    // Enable or disable constant rotation of camera around scene
    autoRotate: true,
    // Rotation speed -- higher is faster
    autoRotateSpeed: 0.3,
    // If true, camera position will be reset whenever any option changes (including this one)
    // Useful when turning off autoRotate, the camera will return to FOV where scene fits to canvas
    resetCameraFlag: false
  }
};

export default () => <ParticleField config={config} />;

If you want to animateCustom instead of src/lib/animates.js :

let particleState = {};
...
<ParticleField config={config} state={particleState} />;
...
animateCustom(particleState.current);
