Description
Particle Wave Add-On extends Revolution Slider with a system of animated wave-shaped particles, generating interactive backgrounds that react to cursor movement and follow the curve configured in the visual editor. The Particle Wave component is added as an object within the slide, with its own density, color, speed, and direction controls, allowing dynamic scenes to be created without writing code.

Who Is It For?
- Designers who build homepages and hero sections in Revolution Slider.
- Agencies that deliver websites with a visual identity defined by animations.
- Creative studios looking to differentiate product and portfolio landing pages.
Designed for those who already work with Revolution Slider and want to go beyond standard transitions, the component delivers an animated background feature that integrates with the usual editing workflow.
