- The page lists seven animation options, from blinking and floating to eye wandering and eyebrow bouncing.
Field notes
The playground exposes controls for shape, detail, depth, mood, background, and animation, and displays an example that updates live. For implementation, the page gives a URL-based SVG API example and a React import with a name, size, and animation prop. It also lists custom gradient arrays, alongside sixteen built-in pastel gradients.
