By Steven Van ·
The rebuilt React Bits background handles thousands of particles and adds new shapes, glow, twinkle, bokeh, constellation lines and cursor effects.
The React Bits Particles background has been rebuilt. It keeps the same floating motion and now stays crisp and runs far faster with thousands of particles, according to the updated component page.
New visual options
The update adds new particle shapes, glow, twinkle, bokeh, constellation lines and drifting. Cursor effects are included as well. The page describes the component as a drifting 3D field of particles with glow, twinkle, constellation lines and cursor interaction.
Installing it
The component can be added in JavaScript or TypeScript, with plain CSS or Tailwind. The TypeScript and Tailwind version installs with npx shadcn@latest add @react-bits/Particles-TS-TW. The component page has an interactive preview, customization controls and source tabs, which need JavaScript enabled.
