The plugin takes a no-frills, zero-config approach – you simply activate the plugin, and it just works – thanks to the excellent underlying web component implementation. There should be no notable adverse effects on performance, also given the plugin uses the WordPress Script Modules API that was introduced in WordPress 6.5.
The plugin respects user preferences for reduced motion, as a best practice for accessibility.

Frequently asked questions.
Where can I configure the plugin?
This plugin doesn’t come with a settings screen or options of any kind. You install it, and it just works.
Does the plugin support reduced motion preferences?
Yes! For better accessibility, for clients that are configured to reduce motion the snow fall effect will not show.
The prefers-reduced-motion media query is used to detect such a preference.
