Add Particles Background to your Divi Site
The particle effect allows particles to be added to the background that may react to the movement of the mouse. The molecules may or may not be linked depending on the style chosen. It is a web design technique that is quite common. By conquering the web, particle animations a few years ago managed to carve out quite a niche for themselves. The huge current obsession with designs that have a modern character and geometric decor makes them one of the most sought-after solutions today. The particle effect can be used to create many kinds of scenes, for example, a snowy spread of white dots, a galaxy, raindrops, etc.
