What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded
A React component wrapper around particles.js/tsParticles for rendering animated particle backgrounds on an HTML canvas. It is deprecated and no longer actively maintained in favor of react-tsparticles.
Use cases
- add animated particle background to a react app
- render interactive particles on canvas in react
- confine particles inside an svg polygon mask
- customize particle behavior via params object
- create a hero section with particle effects
When to choose
- maintaining a legacy react app already using react-particles-js
- you need the exact old API for compatibility
When to avoid
- starting a new project - use react-tsparticles instead
- you need bug fixes or ongoing support
- non-react projects
