Hi Product Hunt! 👋
Most "dark" Astro themes are just a flipped color palette. I wanted something that actually feels alive, so Darkness ships a real WebGL background — 5,000 GPU-accelerated particles that react as you scroll — without hurting performance or accessibility.
What's inside:
🌌 Three.js particle background
📝 MDX blog (Astro Content Collections)
🎨 Modern typography & glassmorphism UI
📱 Fully responsive
🚀 One-click deploy to Vercel / Netlify
It's free and open source (MIT). I'd love your feedback — especially on the design and performance. What would you add?
