Eight animated greyscale backgrounds for a 2D canvas, with ordered dithering. They sit behind body text. Each one changes the page colour slightly and does not become a picture, so a reader should not notice it.
There is no WebGL, no shaders and no dependencies. The library uses a 2D context, typed arrays and putImageData. All eight effects together are 23.7 kB minified and gzipped.
An unrelated package already uses the name canvas-effects on npm, so install this one from GitHub. npm keeps the package's own name, so imports are still from 'canvas-effects'.
