Dark Current — Godsend

Preparing preview…

Installation

Choose your framework. The registry installs one component file and its PixiJS dependency.

Installation unavailable

The preview is public, but its installable release is still being prepared.

The registry command writes the component to src/lib/components/ui/DarkCurrent.svelte and installs its dependencies.

The registry command writes the component to src/components/ui/DarkCurrent.tsx and installs its dependencies.

The registry command writes the component to src/components/ui/DarkCurrent.vue and installs its dependencies.

Overview

Dark Current layers a recursive animated height function, estimates its surface normal, and shades the result with directional light.

Four palette stops separate recessed areas, the field body, raised color, and focused reflections.

Basic usage

The shader fills its parent. Your layout decides whether that parent is a card, hero, or viewport.

Keep Distortion below 1 for broad connected forms. Higher values break the surface into smaller turbulent structures.
Detail changes frequency growth across all five field layers and can alter the composition substantially.
Set Speed to zero for a static frame. Reduced-motion mode pauses the renderer automatically.
