tsParticles Triangles Preset

tsParticles preset for creating a particles web created by link lines between them.

Sample

Quick checklist

1. Install @tsparticles/engine (or use the CDN bundle below)
2. Call loadTrianglesPreset(tsParticles) before tsParticles.load(...)
3. Set preset: "triangles" in options

How to use it

CDN / Vanilla JS / jQuery

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@tsparticles/preset-triangles@3/tsparticles.preset.triangles.bundle.min.js"></script>

Usage

Once the scripts are loaded you can set up tsParticles like this:

(async () => {
  await loadTrianglesPreset(tsParticles);

  await tsParticles.load({
    id: "tsparticles",
    options: {
      preset: "triangles",
    },
  });
})();

Customization

Important ⚠️ You can override all the options defining the properties like in any standard tsParticles installation.

tsParticles.load({
  id: "tsparticles",
  options: {
    particles: {
      shape: {
        type: "square", // starting from v2, this require the square shape script
      },
    },
    preset: "triangles",
  },
});

Like in the sample above, the circles will be replaced by squares.

Frameworks with a tsParticles component library

Checkout the documentation in the component library repository and call the loadTrianglesPreset function instead of loadFull, loadSlim or similar functions.

The options shown above are valid for all the component libraries.

Dependencies

This preset loads and combines the following packages:

| Package | Role in this preset | README | | ------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | @tsparticles/basic | Base runtime bundle used by the preset | https://www.npmjs.com/package/@tsparticles/basic | | @tsparticles/engine | tsParticles engine and preset registration | https://www.npmjs.com/package/@tsparticles/engine | | @tsparticles/interaction-particles-links | Enables link interactions between particles | https://www.npmjs.com/package/@tsparticles/interaction-particles-links | | @tsparticles/plugin-interactivity | Enables external interaction plumbing | https://www.npmjs.com/package/@tsparticles/plugin-interactivity |

If you want to customize one specific behavior, start from the related package README above.

Common pitfalls

• Calling tsParticles.load(...) before loadTrianglesPreset(tsParticles)
• Changing particle shape without loading the corresponding shape package
• Triangle links require nearby particles; if the count is too low or links.distance too small, no triangles will form
