What Aurora Veil does
Aurora Veil is a self-contained WebGL2 artifact designed to produce captivating visual effects, specifically layered aurora light curtains over a starry night sky. This skill allows developers and designers to integrate dynamic and interactive graphics into their web projects without relying on third-party assets. The skill generates a complete index.html file that showcases the aurora effect, which responds to user interaction by swaying with cursor movements. This feature enhances user engagement and adds an artistic touch to web applications.
The implementation leverages the capabilities of WebGL2, ensuring that the rendering is efficient and visually appealing. Open Design's powered preview feature allows for a full GPU rendering pipeline without the limitations of opaque sandboxing, making it easier to preview and test the effects in real-time. This means that developers can focus on refining their designs without worrying about compatibility issues or performance bottlenecks.
Aurora Veil is particularly useful for those in the design and development fields looking to add unique visual elements to websites or applications. Whether you're creating an immersive experience for a game, enhancing a portfolio site, or simply experimenting with WebGL, this skill provides a straightforward solution. The bundled example file serves as a practical starting point, allowing users to see the effect in action and modify it to fit their needs.
Overall, Aurora Veil is an excellent tool for developers and designers who want to explore the creative possibilities of WebGL2 while maintaining a focus on performance and usability.

Produce a single self-contained index.html — A self-contained WebGL2 hero: layered aurora light curtains warped over a night sky scattered with stars; move the cursor to sway the veil.
Why this is a powered artifact
Open Design detects getContext('webgl2') / heavy WebGL and renders this file in powered preview (a cross-origin-isolated iframe). The full GPU + scroll pipeline runs; no opaque-sandbox workarounds are needed.
