Day 24: March 8, 2021

• I discovered a YouTube Channel called Frank's Laboratory with excellent creative coding tutorials.

• For Day 24, I made five mouse trail effects from Frank's Laboratory (see also one, two, three, four).

• The mouse trails use the Canvas API and the HTML <canvas> element to draw graphics and animations.

1. Git clone and cd into the repo folder:

git clone git@github.com:emjose/mousetrail.git && cd mousetrail

2. Run the command:

open index.html

3. On your device, move the cursor around to see the mouse trail effect.

• Spectrum Mouse Trail is best viewed on a desktop or laptop computer browser.

• Spectrum Mouse Trail is a progressive web app.
