I’ve been wanting something joyful to work on for the past monthish, so I’ve been hacking on a new library to do visual flourishes like confetti and fireworks with SVG. I’ve just published the first version: BrianHicks/elm-particle.
In particular, I’ve had a lot of fun with making confetti come out of the 
emoji from Mutant Standard. I’ve attached a GIF below, and you can read the code and play with it yourself in the example docs.
(important caveat: I am not good at creating smooth GIFs, but that runs at 60fps in my browser. Give it a go at the link above!)
Enjoy! And please share your creations with me if you build anything with this.
