## Summary

Transform your Framer website into a cinematic experience with the Rain Effect.

## Description

Transform your Framer website into a cinematic experience with the **Rain Effect**. Built using custom GLSL shaders, this high-performance background component renders realistic rain physics complete with splash particles, depth-based parallax, and dynamic lighting.

It is designed to be highly interactive: a localized light source follows the user's mouse cursor, illuminating nearby raindrops and creating a deep, atmospheric 3D effect. You can also toggle random lightning flashes to intensify the mood. Engineered for top-tier performance, it comes equipped with a smart Intersection Observer that automatically pauses the WebGL rendering when the component is scrolled out of view, ensuring zero impact on your site's CPU and GPU performance.

**Functions (Key Features):**

-   🌧️ **Realistic Physics:** Drops fall with varied speeds and depths, shattering into dynamic splash particles upon impact.
    
-   🖱️ **Interactive Lighting:** A dynamic light source tracks the user's cursor to illuminate nearby raindrops in real-time.
    
-   ⚡ **Dynamic Lightning:** Optional randomized lightning flashes to create a dramatic, stormy atmosphere.
    
-   🚀 **WebGL Performance:** GPU-accelerated rendering with an automatic off-screen pause mechanism to save battery and resources.
    
-   🎨 **Full Customization:** Granular control over rain intensity, speed, drop colors, lighting tint, and lightning frequency.
    

**How to Use:**

1.  **Copy & Paste:** Copy the component from the Layers panel and paste it directly into your Framer canvas.
    
2.  **Sizing:** Set the container's Width and Height to **"Fill" (100%)** to use it as a full-bleed background, and place it behind your main content.
    
3.  **Configure Rain:** Adjust the **Intensity**, **Speed**, and **Splash Size** to control how heavy the storm feels.
    
4.  **Set the Mood:** Enable **Lighting** for mouse-tracking illumination and **Lightning Flash** for dramatic ambient bursts.
    
5.  **Colors:** Customize the **Background**, **Rain Base**, **Splash Tint**, and **Light Color** to perfectly match your brand or website theme.
