Fireflies for night scenes and calm backgrounds: warm dots drift and glow, and move away from the pointer. Amount, speed, size, glow and colour come from data.
Every control here is a view model input in the file. Your app sets the same ones.

How it's built
- 1One script, no keyframesEvery particle is a few numbers the script updates and draws each frame.
- 2Inputs, not code editsAmount, Speed, Size, Glow, Glow colour: all view model inputs.
- 3Transparent on purposeThe artboard has no background, so it sits on top of your own design.
Use it on your site
import { useRive } from '@rive-app/react-canvas';
export function Fireflies() {
const { rive, RiveComponent } = useRive({
src: '/fireflies.riv',
artboard: 'Fireflies',
stateMachines: 'State Machine',
autoplay: true,
autoBind: true,
});
// every input on this page is a view model property
const vm = rive?.viewModelInstance;
if (vm) vm.color('color').value = 0xFFFFD36B;
return <RiveComponent style={{ width: '100%', height: 400 }} />;
}Inputs: amount, speed, scale, glow, color. All on the Fireflies view model.
