drawn-line-paint-worklet v1.0.3

Drawn Line CSS paintWorklet

This really simple paint worklet allows you to draw a horizontal line at the bottom of elements that looks hand-drawn, ish. I made this mostly because I really wanted to have a hand-drawn look for my text-underlines. That's also the reason for why you can't customize for every possible situation. But you could just take the code in worklet.js and adopt it to your liking!

Install it to your project

Paste ye olde npm code into the semi-transparent dark window of your choice:

npm i drawn-line-paint-worklet

And then process the files further to your liking. If you don't do that in your project, going the NPM route is not the way to go. Instead, copy and paste the code, or utilize the CDN.

Via CDN

<script src="https://unpkg.com/drawn-line-paint-worklet@1.0.0/dist/worklet.js"></script>

Make sure to also register the custom properties. See instructions further below.

Adding the Paint Worklet

If you have the files available to you locally, you can rely on register.js to do everything:

<script type="module" src="register.js"></script>

The type="module" may not be needed, depending of whether and how you process the file(s) in your project. This is not gonna be possible to do with

register.js registers the paint worklet and it registers the CSS custom properties via CSS.registerProperty() that you can use to adjust the line generation. This is important, because the CSS typed OM allows for intuitive and easy processing of values.

You can of course do this yourself, if you'd like to do so. In that case, refer to the worklet.js file for the paint worklet code and refer to the properties.js, or take them to CSS and register them in CSS with @property instead - whatever you prefer. But make sure that you do not skip the step of registering the custom properties in some way, otherwise the worklet will not work correctly.

Custom Properties

These are the properties that the paint worklet registers:
