React Sphere Background
Rotating 3D dotted sphere background for React and Next.js — hundreds of points evenly distributed on a sphere spin in real time with convincing depth cues, no WebGL required.
React Sphere Background preview
A clean, architectural 3D effect that sells depth without a single shader or WebGL context. Hundreds of dots are laid out with the Fibonacci sphere algorithm so they're perfectly even across the surface, then spun around the Y-axis with a subtle X-axis tilt — dots on the far side fade and shrink, near-side dots grow and glow, and the whole thing reads as a tactile spinning globe at any viewport size. Runs at 60fps with a single 2D canvas loop, respects devicePixelRatio and prefers-reduced-motion, and scales from hero sections to dashboard backdrops. Perfect for launch pages, developer-tool marketing, 3D-adjacent SaaS, and anywhere you want the feel of a globe without shipping a 3D engine.
