About This Background
An adaptive ambient visual experience
How It Works
The background is a multi-layer WebGL rendering system that transforms live treasury data into ambient visuals:
- Gradient Layer — Smooth color transitions reflecting portfolio sentiment
- Grid Layer — Flowing perspective grid with parallax and breathing effects
- Particle Field — WebGL particle system with orbital physics and mouse interaction
Performance Tiers
The system automatically detects your device capabilities and scales accordingly:
| Tier | Particles | Triggered By |
|---|---|---|
| High | 15,000 | 8+ CPU cores, desktop |
| Medium | 8,000 | 4+ CPU cores |
| Low | 4,000 | Mobile, small screens, reduced motion |
Zen Mode
Hide the dashboard interface and enjoy the background as a pure ambient display:
Shift+Z
Perfect for a second monitor or a relaxing screensaver.
Lab Mode (Max Specs)
For high-performance machines, Lab Mode unlocks the full visual potential:
- Up to 30,000 particles
- 3 depth layers with orbital physics
- Shockwave effects on significant price movements
- Full mouse interaction with particle attraction
- Debug overlay with live FPS and intensity info
Toggle Lab Mode with:
Shift+L
Warning: May impact performance on lower-end devices.
Accessibility
The background respects your system's prefers-reduced-motion setting. If you have motion sensitivity enabled, animations will be minimized or disabled automatically.
