Description
FluidX is a GPU-accelerated WebGL fluid effect in one HTML file — no dependencies, no build step. Adapts quality per device, ships with 7 color themes, and includes a live control panel for bloom, quality, and headline text. Drag your finger across it — the fluid reacts instantly. Built this because most fluid-background effects were heavy React libraries or locked behind pricey templates.
