I find this lightweight confetti library after getting frustrated with heavy animation libraries that would bog down pages just to add some celebratory flair. Canvas Confetti is designed to be performant, accessible, and easy to use.
Key features: • Tiny footprint: Just 1KB gzipped, no dependencies • Performant: Uses canvas for smooth 60fps animations, optional web worker support • Accessible: Built-in reduced motion support (`disableForReducedMotion` option) • Flexible: Custom shapes via SVG paths, emoji confetti, color customization
What makes it different: Most animation libraries are overkill for simple effects. This focuses solely on confetti but does it really well.
