Proton

Why we included this project

Proton is a small JavaScript engine for particle effects like flames, fireworks, bullets, and explosions, and it takes about a dozen lines of code to get one running. It ships several renderers (canvas, DOM, WebGL, and pixel) so you can pick the output path that fits your scene instead of being locked into one stack, and it simulates simple physics such as gravity and Brownian motion to keep motion looking natural. The library works alongside React, Vue, Angular, PixiJS, and Phaser, and it can render tens of thousands of particles on a page. If you want lightweight, polished motion effects in a browser app without writing a particle engine from scratch, Proton is worth a look.
