Organic & Nature

Falling Snow

Up to 110 depth-layered snowflakes drift and sway down a dark blue gradient; pointer movement shifts a wind force that nudges the entire flurry sideways.

When to use it

Winter/holiday hero backgrounds, ambient screensavers, seasonal landing pages on dark themes.

When not to

Light-background layouts (background hardcoded dark navy). Contexts where motion competes with legible text overlays.

Working with an AI agent

Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:

Increase snowflake count by changing the divisor in `Math.round(W*H/4200)` to 2500, shift flake color to warm white by changing `rgba(245,250,255,` to `rgba(255,248,230,`, and slow drift speed by setting `t+=0.005`. Theme: dark tokens live in :root, the light variant in :root[data-theme="light"]; ?theme=light or a {type:'forever:theme'} postMessage switches at runtime.

Safe to edit

  • flake density divisor (W*H/4200)
  • flake color (rgba 245,250,255)
  • wind responsiveness (mw*1.2 factor)
  • flake size range (1+z*2.6)
  • sway amplitude (0.5*f.z multiplier)
  • sky gradient colors (#243349 / #141d2a)
  • theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)

Keep intact

  • DPR-aware canvas sizing and setTransform
  • visibilitychange pause/resume
  • prefers-reduced-motion guard (reduced drift path)
  • theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)

Known limitations

  • Background color hardcoded in CSS — must change #1a2433 and gradient stops together
  • Flake count capped at 110 regardless of screen size
  • Reduced-motion path still animates (slow drift) rather than fully static

More Organic & Nature components

  • Growing VineA sinuous green vine grows upward sprouting 14 alternating leaves and a pale bud tip, then retracts in a seamless loop on a dark forest background.
  • Flickering FireAdditive-blended ember particles rise from a glowing orange base, flickering like a real flame; cursor pans left/right to fan the fire sideways.
  • Water RippleConcentric ripple rings expand across a deep teal water surface with shimmering caustic bands; tap anywhere to drop a new ripple. Auto-drops periodically.
  • Lightning BoltJagged lightning bolts with branching forks strike randomly down a dark storm-sky canvas; screen flashes rust-white on each strike. Tap to trigger instantly.
  • Drifting CloudsPuffy white clouds with radial-gradient puffs and soft blue undersides drift across a layered sky gradient; pointer nudges them forward.
  • Aurora RibbonsThree glowing aurora bands in green and violet ripple and sway over a twinkling starfield; pointer steers the horizontal drift of all ribbons.
