PixiJS Particles – The Missing Manual

Hi, I’m Adrian. I’m a long time game developer and geek, and small time contributor to PixiJS Particle Emitter. I love working with PixiJS, but find the documentation, and particularly posts on forums / StackOverflow, quickly quickly become outdated.

I’m aiming to keep continually updated docs for PixiJS particles here. Honestly, it’s mainly for my reference, but may help others too.

What’s with pixi-particles and PixiJS Particle Emitter?

Pixi Particles was the long time standard for particle effects in PixiJS. It went through some major changes with version 5, and was renamed to PixiJS Particle Emitter. The last version of pixi-particles is 4.3.1, and is available on npm and GitHub.

PixiJS Particle Emitter is the focus for development moving forwards, and is what I’m documenting here. You’ll find the latest version on npm and GitHub. I’ll be adding documentation as I go for all features, and especially all the Behaviors.
