Distant Mountain

Four ukiyo-e hill silhouettes drift at different parallax rates past a snow-capped peak and glowing sun on a gradient indigo sky.

When to use it

Dark ambient backgrounds, art/culture sites, screensaver-style displays needing calm layered landscape motion.

When not to

Light-background layouts (sky color hardcoded in CSS). Contexts needing foreground text legibility over the canvas.

Working with an AI agent

Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:

Change the sun position to center stage by setting sx to W*0.5, shift the peak layer color to a warmer rose-indigo, and slow drift speed from 0.18 to 0.08. Theme: dark tokens live in :root, the light variant in :root[data-theme="light"]; ?theme=light or a {type:'forever:theme'} postMessage switches at runtime.

Safe to edit

  • drift speed (dt*0.18)
  • layer top positions (top: 0.30..0.80)
  • layer parallax factors (f: 0.06..0.42)
  • PAL color palette object
  • sun position (sx=W*0.72, sy=H*0.30)
  • snow cap size (cx+W*0.075)
  • theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)

Keep intact

  • DPR-aware fitCanvas with setTransform
  • IIFE wrapper
  • prefers-reduced-motion static-frame guard
  • visibilitychange stop/start
  • theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)

Known limitations

  • Background CSS color (#3f6f9f) must be updated manually to match sky gradient changes
  • Parallax offsets use sin(drift) so motion is oscillating, not continuous scroll

  • Sudden RainUp to 140 slanted rain streaks fall in two depth layers over a painted ukiyo-e scene: gradient sky, green hill, indigo river, and arched bridge silhouette.
  • Bokashi SkyCanvas sky cycles dawn→day→dusk→night with bokashi gradients; sun/moon arcs overhead, stars appear at night, a bird drifts across, hills anchor the base.
  • Falling SnowSnow flakes drift and sway over a ukiyo-e night scene: indigo sky, snow-capped rooftops, and a lone layered pine. Static fallback for reduced-motion.
  • Plum BranchA ukiyo-e-style ume plum branch with 11 blossoms that bloom open petal-by-petal, sway gently, and re-bloom every 12 seconds against layered ink hills.
  • Boat on the SwellA small ferry rocks on sine-wave swells at dusk beneath a sienna sun and three circling gulls, rendered in ukiyo-e woodblock palette.
  • Lantern Path7 paper lanterns line a receding road in ukiyo-e woodblock style; sky and lanterns cycle through dusk and dawn as darkness falls and lifts.
