CSS Houdini Fractals

Drawing Fractals with CSS Houdini.

This demo was created for https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/houdini.how and can be also previewed on the main Chrome Labs site https://houdini.how/

From: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Houdini

Houdini is a set of low-level APIs that exposes parts of the CSS engine, giving developers the power to extend CSS by hooking into the styling and layout process of a browser’s rendering engine.

rocket Download locally

This repository has zero dependencies. Only the fractals.js file is required to use it with any site. If you would like to try the demo locally download this repository and follow the commands below.

# If you have node installed:
npm start

# If you do not have node installed and have Python installed then depending on
# the version Python and OS installed one of the following commands should work:
python3 -m http.server
python -m http.server
python -m SimpleHTTPServer

bulb Usage

Use CSS Houdini API to import the fractals.js file

// Modern Browsers - Import JavaScript file from CDN
if ('paintWorklet' in CSS) {
    CSS.paintWorklet.addModule('https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/fractals.js');
}

// Modern Browsers - Using Local build, only a single file is needed
if ('paintWorklet' in CSS) {
    CSS.paintWorklet.addModule('fractals.js');
}

Use the [css-paint-polyfill] Polyfill to support all Modern Browsers (won't work with IE)

https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/css-paint-polyfill

<script type="module">
    (async function () {
        if (CSS['paintWorklet'] === undefined) {
            await import('https://unpkg.com/css-paint-polyfill');
        }
        CSS.paintWorklet.addModule('fractals.js');
    })();
</script>

The type of HTML element and class name does not matter, rather height and width are needed.

<style>
    .fractals { height:400px; width:400px; }
</style>
<div class="fractals"></div>
<section class="fractals"></section>

CSS Options

/*
    By default only `background-image: paint(fractals)` is needed.
*/
.fractals {
    background-image: paint(fractals);
}

/*
    The example below shows all options with default values, except
    for [--colors] which is empty resulting in black lines.

    [--colors] are dynamic and based on the number of colors included.
    The delimiter for [--colors] is a space so these examples are all valid:
        --colors: red green blue;
        --colors: black;
        --colors: #000 #222 #444 #666 #888 #aaa #ccc;

    [--shape] = One of [line, circle, square]
    [--debug-to-console] and [-show-origin] = 0 or 1
*/
.fractals {
    --colors: red green blue cyan magenta yellow;
    --angle: 30;
    --starting-length-percent: 22;
    --next-line-size: 0.8;
    --shape: line;
    --max-draw-count: 10000;
    --debug-to-console: 0;
    --show-origin: 0;
    background-image: paint(fractals);
}
