1. react-mouse-particles

react-mouse-particles is a react mouse particle effect component.

github https://github.com/lindelof/react-mouse-particles

A very fun react library that can be used to create mouse particle effects, which are as cool as meteors or fireballs. I often want to use react to do something fun. Using this component may make your page instantly glorious.

npm install --save react-mouse-particles
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
import React, { Component } from 'react'

import MouseParticles from 'react-mouse-particles'

class Example extends Component {
  render () {
    return (
      <>
        <div>...</div>
        <MouseParticles g={1} color="random" cull="col,image-wrapper"/>
      </>
    )
  }
}
