ParticipantDon’t know why you’d even want to. It’s slow as hell! They probably used jQuery for that. Silliness.

Ehhh… I’m ok.

Oh NP. It’s pretty slow for me. Then again… I’m on a laptop without a dedicated graphics card. But that’s precisely the point. Not everyone is going to be on a super baller PC or brand new Mac. So… stuff like this probably isn’t a great idea.
But if you’re set on doing it… it just looks like a munch of triangular particles to me.
Here is a brief tutorial:

This does not show you have to write the underlying physics functions. However… they link to it. So, you can just use their code and make these things triangles. Also… you’ll have to do some work to figure out how they got their letters the way they did. There’s probably a plugin on Github that does this.

ParticipantSince they don’t have it turned off, you can dig into the code yourself:

They’re using
canvas
and physics that have math in them I don’t understand… but if you mess around with it enough you might just get what it all means.August 8, 2014 at 1:33 pm #178337nixnerd
Participant@nkrisc… I’m loving that assumption so much. Because guess what cell phones are? Crap computers with really weird settings. If I could upvote that comment… I would.
@rwchampin There are so many cool things you can do… that ARE compatible with most machines. I kind of can’t believe this is super slow on my lappy… but it is. -
