03

Template Details

snow-theme is a pure JavaScript snowfall animation script for developers who want to add a winter or holiday atmosphere to their websites. It has no external dependencies; you include snow.js before the closing </body> tag, and the script automatically generates falling snowflakes on the page.

The script exposes configuration options through the global SnowTheme.config object, allowing you to adjust the snowflake characters (default ❄, ❅, ❆), maximum snowflake count, generation interval, size range, fall duration, wind strength, and the z-index of the snowflake layer. The README provides configuration examples for light snow, heavy snow, custom snowflakes, and slow snowfall.

Regarding usage limitations, the README notes that if snowflakes are obscured by page content, you need to increase zIndex; if performance issues occur, you can lower density, increase interval, or reduce maxSize. The script works on the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Opera. The repository uses the MIT license, allowing use in personal and commercial projects, but third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons require separate license verification.

Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.

The catalog identifies HTML as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.

</html>
```

## 🎨 Customization

### Available Options
```javascript
// Default configuration
SnowTheme.config = {
    snowflakes: ['❄', '❅', '❆'],      // Snowflake characters
    density: 50,                        // Maximum number of snowflakes
    interval: 200,                      // How often new snowflakes are created (ms)
    minSize: 0.8,                      // Minimum snowflake size
    maxSize: 1.5,                      // Maximum snowflake size
    minDuration: 5,                    // Minimum fall duration (seconds)
    maxDuration: 15,                   // Maximum fall duration (seconds)
    wind: 20,                          // Wind effect strength
    zIndex: 999999                     // Layer level of snowflakes
}
```

### Customization Examples

#### Light Snow
```html
