JavaScript Pixel Rain with Colors 🎨
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- Let's build awesome animations that will work in any browser and on any website. In this vanilla JavaScript and HTML canvas tutorial we will learn A LOT about image manipulation and create many cool effects including 'pixel fire'. At the same time we will learn about important JavaScript techniques, that can help us to pass coding interview and get hired as a junior Front End Web Developer. In this tutorial we will add more tools to our vanilla JavaScript coding toolkit and I will show you how to create different animations using pixels from an image.

Click the LIKE please! :) Part 1 with base effect ruclips.net/video/RCVxXgJ8xSk/видео.html
That's a cool effect. I'm looking forward to the next tutorial.
Hi, I haven't checked your channel for a while but I can see you really levelled up your content. I really like your latest set of videos. Getting close to 1000 subs, awesome. If you decide to be on camera eventually in your videos we can do a collab tutorial :)
Love this Frank. Awesome work! Love that it’s all done with plain old js as well. Nice one bud.
Hi Conor, thanks. I do everything on my channel with plain JS, it's kinda my niche and people seem to like it
I had no idea there was going to be more to the first video💙💙💙. I am so glad I don’t have to search and combine elements from 20 different sources to get the effect I want.. still planning to and my own touch to the project I’m working on. Thanks for making video tutorials like this because I’m a total audio visual learner.
There are many other things that could be done with this technique, I could have spent another hour playing with the code making new effects. Good luck with your studies Curtis
I follow your videos and try to reproduce these effects myself, and I remember that clearRect function is important to call at every frame, which became my mindset. So when I inspected the code of step6 on codepen, I dont know what are the differences between the code and mine at first. After a while, I found a tip on screen showing "Dont Clear .. ", and when I commented the clearRect funtion, the result shocked me, and so did your programming thinking.
Nice. It's fun to combine different ideas like this. Sometimes I come up with unexpected results. Glad to hear you found some value
after failing in 4 attempts for this thing in my pc ,finally yesterday's night , i was able to complete this work 100%.
I had made some modifications too.
Thanks alot for helping me ,u are a legend ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Mayank! Congratulations on completing the project, sounds like you were dedicated to make it work. There are many modifications that can be done here, I could have made this video 3 hours long. thank you for your feedback ❤
You are simply the lord of pixels;)

Вы просто повелитель пикселей;)
Haha thank you, very kind :D
I have been waiting to watch this tutorial! Thank you. Frank your tutorials are the best in the whole web. From el Salvador
Hi Mr Cybertech, thank you so much, very kind to say that. Greetings to el Salvador :)
@@Frankslaboratory thank you, I also know your country. I lived in CZ in Pilsen, I love your country Ahoj
@@MrCybertech1 Oh really, did you live stay there for holidays or work? When you say you lived there it sounds like it was for a longer period. They have a nice ZOO in Pilsen I use to go a lot as a kid. Ahoj :D
@@Frankslaboratory yes I stay for work and yes it was for 2 years it was wonderful, byl to jeden z nejlepších zážitků, které jsem ve svém životě zažil.
I have been waiting to watch this tutorial! Thank you Frank. I've also been following along from your codepen. That fire effect is really really cool!
Hi Benjamin, thank you. I need to work on some optimizations now, have few ideas
Hello Frank!! Thats really cool effect. Thank u so much!!!
Hi, thank you, very kind to say
Another great tutorial! I love all the experimentation and how you show your process. I'm already beginning trying out these methods.
Your videos are always the ones I wait most for to release. Thanks again!
Hi Arthur, I do this experimentation with a lot of my codebases but usually don't make it into a video. I'm not sure how valuable it is to people but I guess it does give some insight into certain techniques. This one was a bit special, people reacted and liked the original effect so I decided to release this as a bonus :)
@@Frankslaboratory I personally would like to see more the the thoughtprocess that goes into these projects. I think it's cool and refreshing to see that you're just experimenting with values as opposed to other tutorials where it looks like they've done it a million times and just throw some code up on the screen. We got to hear what you wanted to do, and then the process in which you accomplished said goal. I think this is exactly what new coders need to realize, myself included, is that there's a particular mindset that you have to have while problem-solving or coming up with a new project. Very cool to see, in my opinion.
@@coltonaallen I'm hearing your feedback, thank you for taking the time to let me know. I will show more behind the scenes when it fits the project. Some projects are more flexible than others. What I mean this video like this I can make many variations quickly, if it was a gamedev video, variations and experiments would most likely mean additional features, which take more code to implement. Maybe this experimentation part would also fit a live stream format, hmm. Now you gave me an idea :D
@@Frankslaboratory I would totally subscribe to livestreams! Although the 8+ hour time difference would be hard to catch, but I whole-heartedly support it. Lol. Keep up the inspiring work. I think I've learned so much about how javascript actually works through your tutorials without the need of any libraries. This fire variant has given me a great idea to try so I'm currently working on it.
It was amazing! Thank you very much!
Hi Erop, nice to meet you, glad you found some value
Nice sir.
Thank you sir, sharing your knowledge
Hi Deepak, happy to share it with you
Bravo!! 👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🖖🖖🖖🖖🖖🖖
Cool! Any idea how CSS filters compare with Canvas filters?
If you are talking about compositing images over images: CSS, Canvas, and almost any photo editing program has the same filters. Things like Additive, Subtractive, Multiply, Screen, Overlay, Lighten... etc. They each might use different words, but it's all the same principle.
Here's a list of Canvas compositions:
developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CanvasRenderingContext2D/globalCompositeOperation
However, if what you mean by compare is 'processing and speed' - CSS filters will be more efficient to use over Canvas unless you are already using Canvas to achieve other effects, then it would be better to just use Canvas filters.
Hi Radu and Jon, this is really interesting discussion I love filters. The naming is slightly confusing because sometimes I use inline SVG filter and call it canvas filter as well, then we have as Jon says globalCompositeOperation from canvas 2d API, it's CSS counterpart is CSS mixed-blend-mode property. Then we have CSS filter property I used in this video and it's counterpart is inline SVG filter that is basically HTML mark-up applied via CSS using it's ID. I need to do a proper testing session with all these. The thing I used to create 'fire' effect is just filter I normally use for 'liquid' effect. filter: blur(2px) contrast(3). Sometimes I also use inline SVG mark-up to achieve the same result but in this codebase you get a completely different end result with inline SVG. I need to test this further to fully understand what's going on. Great question Radu thanks.
@@JM-de2gh I was referring to what Frank does at 21:11 in CSS. I know you can also set blur to the context like ctx.filter = 'blur(2px)'; but not sure which I should use. I have a feeling that the CSS variant is faster.
@@Frankslaboratory Yeah :-) too many technologies and way to accomplish similar effects.
Beautiful! - If you ever intend to make another video of this kind, I would really love to know how you would solve a kind of "fade out" effect, e.g. as button to stop the effect can be clicked; but then only those particles disappear, that are already disappearing, because they reached the edge of the screen. I could solve this only by implementing a method that splices the particlesArray as such, but not by splicing a "out-of-sight" particle (which would need indexOf, and that messes with the speed parameter, which will throw an error after the first removal already).
Top notch stuff. I wish I had time to make tribute v2 for this (I have some ideas), but I really need to weary myself working on my portfolio for now.
Thanks Jon, I'm still enjoying the memory of the first tribute hahaha. Also the fact that we are calling it a tribute makes me feel super important right now :D :D What's the plan for your portfolio, are you going for visually impressive or clean and proffesional?
@@Frankslaboratory Although visuals have a special place in my heart -- I'm treating my portfolio like a business site where I'm the product. I'll stick to clean on this one. I'm trying to keep all movement or animations secondary and subtle. Now, on my projects that I demonstrate on there, I hope to showcase some visually interesting things.
@@JM-de2gh It does make sense. I guess also it is about what kind of jobs you are applying for. From my experience many front end hiring managers are creative people and they will appreciate if you include some neat animations, as long as you make sure it doesn't break mobile responsive styles and page performance. My advice would be make sure you have good accessibility score as well. Hiring manager check that.
Thank you😊
Thanks Abed, have a nice weekend :)
When i decided to learn programming my main goal was: "i need to make games"
When i learn programming i discover that programming is awesome not only with making games.
I need to learn 3d game devellopment.
But i dont found any course or source to learn it. I need someone can explain for beginners not only the code also the necessary Math.
What do you recommend me?
And thank you anyway
Hi franck, i got one question, is that normal that the speed of particles is not linear, i mean there is like it goes slow and a bit fast then slow .. I don't know if i missed something :/
Otherwise, this is the 5th tutorial i'm following about canvas and images manipulation from you, i love that you love vanilla ! Thanks from France one more time :)
How to export the code as video?
The is gorgeous! Is there a way to render a HQ still frame from this?
Hi Ali. Canvas renders raster images. Its pixel based. To make it HQ you would have to make the entire project bigger so it contains more pixels.
Then taking screenshot is simple. In some cases you can just right click canvas and save it as png
Constraining position1/2 with Min/Max to canvas size seem like a more straightforward solution then constant checking.
And on my browser globalCompositeOperation increase processing demand 10x, so I'm not sure this is stuff to use on more general use websites as the end user might get a terrible experience.
Good idea with min/max, thank you for sharing. globalCompositeOperation and for example canvas shadows are very performance hungry, but I show it anyway, couple of years ago rotating image on canvas was very slow and now it's optimised and easy. I hope that as time goes on these features will be better supported and optimised, so we might as well learn some of them now.
Hey Frank, great video. How do you measure the program's performance though?
Hi Pranav, I just check browser console, it has a performace tab, it used to show FPS but now it shows a bit more hard to read info
sir,
I am a big fan of your work ❤
by the way it's a request comment.😊
I search for lighting effect in canvas games but i can't find good doc about it.😣
I highly request to you to make a video about light in canvas game.😇
Hi Md. I want to do some lighting effects. Will add it on my list!
Im having a pretty horrible time with this one. Pc barely runs at 5000 particles. I take it my i5 w 4gb of ram doesnt cut it. Is there a way to make this work with relatively low specs? (without a whole course on node, im saving that for later)
Hi Gaston, what's the resolution of image you are using?
Hi can you help me , i make an game with fabric js but when move multipile sprites the browser hanging with no Errors .
Knowing that I used requestAnimationFrame ؟
Hi, sorry I missed your comment. I am not familiar with fabric.js so I won't be much help debugging it. If you get any errors while following my vanilla JavaScript tutorials in that case I can help you find the problems/bugs. Hope you manage to sort it out
OMG !! It's really awesome , how much one can do with just vanilla JavaScript 😄
Sir Franks , would you please have a look at the game's prototype , I'll be really like to get some help with my bullet system in that game
Hi Tarun, what game are you working on, is it on your Codepen?
@@Frankslaboratory yup , it's a shooting game ( space shooter ) , solved a lot of weird bugs .... But the bullets are thought to handle I can't really get it to work in a better way .. so , if I'll get a bit of help that'll be awesome .... 🙂 , And thank you for following me to codepen .... Never thought a professional programmer would follow me
@@tarun7617 Hi Tarun, it's a really cool space shooter game you are building. You are using a lot of good practices, pushing to the array, splicing out bullets that moved outside canvas. This must have been a great coding exercise for you. This is not beginner stuff anymore, you are a good coder.
@@Frankslaboratory it's really fun to make little stuff like those ... But it's just a prototype I'm going to add at least 3 lvls and ....
Thank you Soo much for new and awesome tutorials , I'm really learning a lot all thanks to Franks
@@tarun7617 I can see you are learning a lot because that Codepen uses a lot of good coding techniques. It's nice to see when someone takes action and puts it into their own project ideas.
Can we download your code for this?
You can message me on Twitter
I wish next video tutorial can be run on mobile
Hi, do you have any tips to make the video more mobile friendly? I use mostly PC with 2 huge screens myself so I sometimes forget, but I will try to make it suitable for mobiles
May be you know me. So please make the video on mobile friendly like game which has buttons to control the game I have seen your all videos but there is uses keyboard or else so I hope it is possible. Thank you bro for listening me😊
@@AnimeThings_ Oh I understand now. Next time I make a game I will make it playable on mobile, unless it's a genre that wouldn't work without a mouse. I am thinking of next topics today. Thank you for the feedback :)
Sir franks , can we add audio files in codepen ?
Hi tarun I think you need to have PRO subscription on Codepen to be able to store images and audio files on their servers, but you should still be able to link them from remote web accessible locations. I did it many times for images on my codepen, because I dont' have PRO, haven't tried for sound yet but will test it
@@Frankslaboratory haha , I saw your code for how you were able to import images , that's how I was able to upload images too , it's all thanks to you ( my teacher on RUclips ) 🙂 , so thank you
@@tarun7617 I knew you could figure it out, well done. I will cover A LOT of new gamedev techniques in my next game project. It will be a lot of code so most likely multiple videos. Still haven't decided if I should add sound to that one
@@Frankslaboratory I'm really looking forward to learn new tricks to improve my skills , and it's fine , It's one of skill a professional need .... To solve problem while programming !! I'll try my best . 😆
It'll be fun
@@Frankslaboratory sir franks , can you please see my prototype 2.2 ? i was able you add sounds ,but .... i`m just worried that , i`m not doing anything bad , as i find sounds effect from "OpenGameArt.org" and copied there link to use them ..... if i`m doing something bad ...please let me know ,i`ll remove those sounds..... if franks have some time to spare
