When to use it
Dark-mode hero backgrounds, Japanese or nature-themed UIs, ambient screensavers, or anywhere a calming painterly landscape is needed.
When not to
Light-background layouts (background is hardcoded dark navy). Contexts requiring overlaid readable text — the mist animation competes with copy.
Working with an AI agent
Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:
Change the sun position to the left (set sunX=W*0.25), shift SKY_TOP to [80,40,60] for a rose-gold sky, and increase crane count NB to 9. 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
- crane count (NB=5)
- ridge tints (RIDGES array col values)
- sun position (sunX=W*0.70, sunY=H*0.34)
- sky palette (SKY_TOP, SKY_BOT)
- fog opacity per ridge (R.fog values)
- pine count per ridge (R.pines)
- theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)
Keep intact
- DPR-aware canvas resize + setTransform
- visibilitychange pause/resume
- prefers-reduced-motion static-frame fallback
- IIFE wrapper
- theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)
Known limitations
- Background color hardcoded to dark navy in CSS — must change both CSS and SKY_TOP to retheme
- Fog lozenges can overlap awkwardly at very small viewport heights
- No pointer interactivity — purely ambient
