The library essentially offers a fully customizeable particle-system implementation into HTML documents. Users of the library have the ability to create and fine-tune effects to their individual liking. The library offers a few simple effects right out-of-the-box, so you don't have to waste time re-creating simple effects.
document.querySelector(".button").addEventListener("click", function (e) {
party.confetti(this, {
count: party.variation.range(20, 40),
});

Known Issues
"The particles are getting cut off inside the screen!"
When creating the particle container, the library calculates the document<body>'s size once. If your document size changes during the lifetime of your application you can either:- Remove the
#party-js-container. This forces the library to re-initialize the container and will re-calculate the size. All particles will remain in memory, so nothing will be lost. - Manually calculate the needed container size and update it yourself. The library does not do this on a per-frame basis, in order not to unvoluntarily slow down older devices with timeout polling, and watching for document size changes is an expensive task, as of writing.
