Snow Fall

This plugin adds a subtle snow fall effect to your website, using the lightweight <snow-fall> JavaScript web component by Zach Leatherman.

• Learn more about the <snow-fall> component
• Demo of the <snow-fall> component

The plugin takes a no-frills, zero-config approach - you simply activate the plugin, and it just works - thanks to the excellent underlying web component implementation. There should be no notable adverse effects on performance, also given the plugin uses the WordPress Script Modules API that was introduced in WordPress 6.5.

The plugin respects user preferences for reduced motion, as a best practice for accessibility.
