## Where to use it
A nod to the Memphis Group and the bold graphics of the eighties. Thirty small SVG shapes, from squiggles and zigzags to striped squares, half circles and dot grids, are spread over a fine dot pattern with a little randomness. Each one floats and rocks on its own rhythm, and outlined pieces use the text color so they work in light and dark themes.
Pick three loud colors for the shapes. Density scales them up or down. A short script pushes nearby shapes away from the pointer with an elastic overshoot, so the confetti reacts as you move. Fun for events, music, kids' products and creative agencies.

I want to add the “Memphis confetti” block (Backgrounds) from AIMRAN Library to my project.
## What it is
Eighties squiggles, zigzags, triangles and dot grids float around and bounce out of the way when the pointer gets close.
## Chosen settings
- Color 1: #ffc845
- Color 2: #16b3a0
- Color 3: #ff5c8a
- Speed: 1x (from 0.2 to 3x)
- Density / scale: 1x (from 0.5 to 2x)
- Opacity: 1 (from 0.2 to 1)
## What I need
1. Add it to my project with the same look and animation as the reference code: same sizes, colours, radii, shadows, timings and easing.
2. It is built with plain HTML and CSS (the reference wraps it in a React component with its CSS). If my project uses something else (Vue, Svelte, Astro, plain HTML…), translate it without losing any behaviour. If I use Tailwind, turn the styles into classes; if not, keep the CSS in its own file.
3. Expose the settings above as props (or CSS variables) with those values as defaults.
4. Make it work well on phones: nothing that depends only on hover, touch targets of at least 44 px and no overflow on 320 px screens.
5. Make it look right in light and dark mode.
6. Keep it accessible: semantic HTML, roles and aria-* where needed, visible focus and keyboard support.
7. Respect prefers-reduced-motion: with reduced motion, no big animations but the same end result.
