LIGHT. MATH. YOUR NEXT BUILD.
Terrain
A receding wire grid rolls gently toward the horizon. Pointer movement lifts the surface; clicks travel across it as light waves.
Category: Grid / perspective field.

Integration example
Download this shader's kit before running the example. The runtime is a local file from that kit, not a public CDN or npm package.
import { createBackground } from './shader-background.js';
const background = createBackground(
document.querySelector('#background'),
{
"effect": "terrain",
"colors": [
"#0b1020",
"#334674",
"#a9c7f3"
],
"speed": 0.3,
"gridSpacing": 46,
"lineWidth": 0.3,
"maxPixels": 700000,
"maxFPS": 30
}
);
// On view teardown:
// background.destroy();Give the host an explicit size, preserve applicable stage CSS from the exported example, and keep content above the decorative canvas. JavaScript, React, and Next.js guides explain integration.
Motion, assets, and licensing
Test the finished page on your target devices, respect reduced motion, and use a pause control for persistent animation. Keep the license and notices included in your kit. Uploaded imagery needs its own usage rights. See performance and licensing.
