About Meteor Effect

The Meteor Effect renders a shower of diagonal streaking particles behind page content using CSS animation. Each meteor is a gradient line that falls at a random angle, opacity, size, and speed. The combined effect creates atmospheric depth and a sense of motion while running entirely on CSS keyframes with zero JavaScript animation overhead. Use it as a hero backdrop, CTA section atmosphere, or full-page background for launch pages and AI products.
