Neat gradients

Create awesome 3D gradients with this library based on three.js.

Check the demo and gradients editor to find your perfect config here: https://neat.firecms.co/

Neat is released under the CC license, so you can use it for free in your projects, commercial or not. You can also modify it and redistribute it, but you must keep the license and the credits.

Installation:

yarn install @firecms/neat three

or

npm install @firecms/neat three

Ensure you do not install three.js, that is a different incompatible package.

Usage:

import { NeatConfig, NeatGradient } from "@firecms/neat";

// Define your config
export const config: NeatConfig = {
    "colors": [
        {
            "color": "#FF5772",
            "enabled": true
        },
        {
            "color": "#4CB4BB",
            "enabled": true
        },
        {
            "color": "#FFC600",
            "enabled": true
        },
        {
            "color": "#8B6AE6",
            "enabled": true
        },
        {
            "color": "#2E0EC7",
            "enabled": true
        }
    ],
    "speed": 4,
    "horizontalPressure": 3,
    "verticalPressure": 4,
    "waveFrequencyX": 3,
    "waveFrequencyY": 3,
    "waveAmplitude": 8,
    "shadows": 1,
    "highlights": 5,
    "colorBrightness": 1,
    "colorSaturation": 7,
    "wireframe": false,
    "colorBlending": 8,
    "backgroundColor": "#003FFF",
    "backgroundAlpha": 1,
    "grainScale": 3,
    "grainIntensity": 0.3,
    "grainSpeed": 1,
    "resolution": 1
};


// define an element with id="gradient" in your html
const neat = new NeatGradient({
    ref: document.getElementById("gradient"),
    ...config
});

// you can change the config at any time
neat.speed = 6;

// you can also destroy the gradient for cleanup
// e.g. returning from a useEffect hook in React
neat.destroy();

How it works

Neat is a three.js library that generates a 3d gradient based on a config object.

It uses a custom WebGL shader to generate a 3D shape that morphs and changes its color based on the config.

All the computations are done on the GPU, so it's very fast and efficient.
