tsParticles particles.js compatibility library.
The CDN/Vanilla version JS has two different files:
initPjs
function to load the tsParticles/particles.js compatibilityIncluding the tsparticles.pjs.bundle.min.js
file will work exactly like v1
, you can start using the tsParticles
,
the particlesJS
instance, or the Particles
object in the same way.
This installation requires more work since all dependencies must be included in the page. Some lines above are all specified in the Included Packages section.
Once the scripts are loaded you can set up tsParticles
or particlesJS
like this:
const { particlesJS } = initPjs(tsParticles); // not needed if using the bundle script, required for any other installation
particlesJS("tsparticles", {
/* options */
});
// or
tsParticles.load({
id: "tsparticles",
options: {
/* options */
},
});
Here you can use ParticlesJS or tsParticles options, they will work both fine.
const { Particles } = initPjs(tsParticles); // not needed if using the bundle script, required for any other installation
Particles.init({
/* options */
});
