What it does
Teaches the agent how to build a decorative particle layer, such as falling petals, leaves, snow or confetti, confined to a single section of a web page. It covers choosing a rendering method, configuring motion, pausing when the section is off-screen, and falling back to a still image when the visitor prefers reduced motion. The skill is a set of instructions and a demo, so the agent writes the front-end code for you rather than you installing a ready-made library.
Great for
- Front-end developers adding atmosphere to a landing page or hero section
- Designers who want a themed particle effect explained and prototyped quickly
- Teams that need motion effects to respect performance and accessibility rules
Skip it if
- Projects needing a full-page animated background or 3D scenes, since the skill deliberately keeps effects bounded and suggests WebGL only for very large particle counts
- Non-technical users who only want a finished widget to paste in, because the output is custom code that still needs review and testing
Try asking
- “Add a gentle falling petal effect behind the hero section of my spring campaign page”
- “Create a subtle snow layer for the footer that pauses when scrolled out of view and respects reduced motion”
- “Build a spark effect in the pricing section with pointer disturbance and a static fallback”

Ask for the task
No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.
Get better results
- Describe the section's mood, content density and the particle shape you want so the agent picks the right renderer (canvas, DOM/SVG, or WebGL)
- Review the generated code and test it at mobile and desktop widths and with reduced motion enabled, as the skill's verification checklist recommends
- Open demo/index.html as a working reference to see the expected result before asking for a remix
