Applause useSound Confetti

Applause Button

Click the 🙌 for claps in the Bio Section above and see an hear the Magic. 🤟🎉

I wanted a Applause button with sound and Confetti of my own design and below is what I came up with. I will be adding a version for FaunaDB using my own API with Netlify functions💯

Applause api

🖧 Utilizing the free api from 🔗 Applause Button to CRUD the data. If you use this API allot, you should donate for its server time or to 🔗 Open Collective.

useSound Hook

💫 Using a simple React Hook from 🔗 Josh Comeau post on useSound Hook

Confetti Cannon

💣 I am using 🔗 react-dom-confetti for the Confetti Cannon that is positioned over the Applause button as so the explosion will come from the button count on the API response.

Install Modules

🤟 You will have to add sound.mp3 and modules. I got my clapping.mp3 from 🔗 FreeSound.org

Your own clapping sound

And then install...

yarn add use-sound react-dom-confetti

If you are using the below code give a Applause or use any social link or github star or add a Comment in the FaunaDB Comments Form to display your comments on this page.
