## Summary

Vortex Background is an animated canvas-based component that renders a dynamic particle system rotating around a central vortex.

## Description

Vortex Background is an animated canvas-based component that renders a dynamic particle system rotating around a central vortex. Particles follow spiral paths influenced by procedural noise, creating smooth, organic motion with subtle trailing effects.

You can fully customize particle colors, vortex strength, animation speed, trail length, and density to match different moods, from calm ambient sections to energetic hero backgrounds. An optional connection mode draws lines between nearby particles, adding structure and visual interest for tech and futuristic designs.

The component automatically scales to its container and allows content to be layered above the animation without affecting interactivity, making it ideal for immersive sections while keeping text readable.
