fopix

Fopix is a simple tool for creating 2D pixel text, and simple graphics animations. It is based on ThreeJS and custom forces engine, here is the DEMO
Usage
import { createFopix, SectionData } from '~/index';
// just a basic section with a bunch of words and tags
const SECTIONS: SectionData[] = [
{
type: 'words',
text: [
'Hi',
`I'm David`,
`and I'm a`,
`software engineer`
]
},
{
type: 'tags',
text: [
'test',
'lorem',
'ipsum',
'dolor'
]
}
];
function main() {
const container = document.getElementById('myElement');
const fopix = createFopix({
container,
sections: SECTIONS,
});
container.addEventListener('click', () => {
// navigate through animation, go to next word or section
fopix.next();
});

| backgroundColor | number | 0xffffffff | ❌ | canvas background color |
| size | number | 12 | ❌ | particle size in pixels (one square) |
| letterSpacing | number | 5 | ❌ | letter spacing in pixels |
| color | number | 0x000000 | ❌ | text color (if particle includes it's own color will be ignored) |
