API reference
The wrapper adds playback and runtime safeguards while preserving the
complete Paper SimplexNoise API. This includes its colors, noise, motion,
sizing, pixel-ratio, and styling props. See the
Paper Simplex Noise reference for
the full prop table and accepted ranges.
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
playback | "auto" | "always" | "paused" | "auto" | Controls motion policy. Auto pauses for reduced motion and while the shader is outside the viewport. |
colors | string[] | ["#4449CF", "#FFD1E0", "#F94446", "#FFD36B", "#FFFFFF"] | Supplies up to ten gradient colors. The wrapper provides a bold curated palette when omitted. |
width / height | number | string | "100%" | Sets the canvas CSS dimensions. Size the parent element to establish the visible area. |
maxPixelCount | number | 2073600 | Caps the rendered pixel budget. Override only after measuring the target devices. |
