# Snowfall React Component

`Snowfall` is a customizable React component that creates a snowfall effect using a custom image. The component allows you to adjust various properties such as the wind speed and direction to create a realistic snowfall simulation.

## Features

- Customizable snowfall effect
- Adjustable wind speed and direction
- Easy to integrate into any React project

## Installation

To install the package, run:

```bash
npm install snowfallreact
```

## Usage

Here's how you can use the `Snowfall` component in your React application.

### Importing the Component

First, import the `Snowfall` component and your custom snowflake image.

```jsx
import React from 'react';
import Snowfall from 'snowfallreact';
import snowflakeImage from './path/to/your/snowflake.png'; // Replace with the actual path to your image
```

### Using the Component

You can use the `Snowfall` component in your application and customize it with the available props.

```jsx
const App = () => {
  return (
    <div className="App">
      <h1>Snowfall Effect in React</h1>
      <Snowfall imageSrc={snowflakeImage} windSpeed={2} windDirection={45} particleCount={20} />
    </div>
  );
};

export default App;
```

## Props

The `Snowfall` component accepts the following props to customize the snowfall effect:

| Prop            | Type     | Default | Description                                                                 |
|-----------------|----------|---------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `imageSrc`      | `string` | Required| The path to your custom snowflake image.                                    |
| `windSpeed`     | `number` | `0`     | The speed of the wind that affects the horizontal movement of the snowflakes. |
| `windDirection` | `number` | `0`     | The direction of the wind in degrees. 0 degrees is to the right, 90 degrees is down, 180 degrees is to the left, and 270 degrees is up. |
| `particleCount` | `number` | `17`    | The number of snowflake particles to generate. |

### Example

```jsx
<Snowfall 
  imageSrc={snowflakeImage} 
  windSpeed={2} 
  windDirection={45} 
  particleCount={20}
/>
```

### Description of Props

- **`imageSrc`**: This prop is mandatory. It should be the path to the image you want to use as the snowflake.
- **`windSpeed`**: This prop controls how fast the wind blows. A higher number means stronger wind.
- **`windDirection`**: This prop controls the direction of the wind. Use degrees to set the direction. For example, `0` means the wind blows to the right, `90` means the wind blows downwards, etc.
- **`particleCount`**: This prop controls the quantity of the particles. For example, `10` means there will be 10 particles and `20` means there will be 20 particles present in the animation and so on.
