Falling snow for winter scenes and holiday pages: flakes drift, sway and blow with the wind. Amount, wind, speed, size and colour come from data.

How it's built

  1. 1
    One script, no keyframesEvery particle is a few numbers the script updates and draws each frame.
  2. 2
    Inputs, not code editsAmount, Wind, Speed, Flake size, Snow: all view model inputs.
  3. 3
    Transparent 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 Snowfall() {
  const { rive, RiveComponent } = useRive({
    src: '/snowfall.riv',
    artboard: 'Snowfall',
    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 = 0xFFFFFFFF;

  return <RiveComponent style={{ width: '100%', height: 400 }} />;
}

Inputs: amount, wind, speed, scale, color. All on the Snow view model.
