Topo Flow is a generative visual component that creates flowing, organic motion using animated metaballs combined with topographic contour lines. The result is a soft, evolving landscape that feels alive, modern, and highly immersive.
Built with canvas rendering and SVG filtering, the component simulates natural movement through orbiting particles that merge and separate dynamically. As shown in your implementation , each moving element contributes to a layered contour effect, producing smooth rings that resemble elevation maps or fluid waves.
The interplay between blur, thresholding, and ring segmentation creates a unique “hollow topographic” aesthetic, making it perfect for backgrounds that need to feel both minimal and expressive. With customizable parameters like speed, radius, range, and ring density, you can easily fine tune the visual behavior to match different design styles.
