After trying to implement particles and animations in Dear Imgui 5, we noticed that it isn’t ideal as the compatibility with UE5 was placing Dear Imgui widgets into the UE5 for debugging purposes, and the main heavy lifting 3D engines were actually third party such as OpenCV. Upon discussion with our clients, we settled on switching to a 2D animation instead with an electron application, using the electron-react-boilerplate code. The UI implementation proved to be a lot faster and easier now as we could use react, which all of our members were familiar with.

The shader could now be done using three js and the particle animation was still in investigation by one of our team members.

Various offline AI libraries on JavaScript was searched but none seemed to be ideal for the project.
