Greets the user the moment they finish onboarding: a halftone Twenty
mark (brand purple) assembles from scattered particles, shimmers, then
bursts outward to reveal the freshly loaded workspace behind it. Plays
once, ~3s, with a reduced-motion fallback.

`PageChangeEffect` sets a transient `isWelcomeAnimationVisibleState`
atom at the onboarding to workspace redirect seam (gated by
`shouldShowWelcomeAnimationOnNavigate`); `WelcomeOverlay`, mounted in
`WorkspaceAppProviders`, plays it and clears it. Transient by design, so
it never replays on reload.

## Why a canvas rendered on another thread

The overlay plays at the exact moment the workspace mounts behind it,
which is one of the heaviest main-thread stretches in the app (metadata,
providers, first data fetch). Anything animating on the main thread
competes with that work:

- framer-motion and plain main-thread `requestAnimationFrame` visibly
stuttered and froze during the mount, because long tasks starve rAF.
- CSS keyframes stay smooth (they run on the compositor), but can't
drive a ~2900-particle halftone with per-particle physics (staggered
assemble, moving shimmer band, directional burst).

So the halftone runs as a Canvas 2D particle system inside a Web Worker,
drawing to an `OffscreenCanvas` transferred from the main thread. The
whole render loop lives off the main thread, so app-mount jank can't
reach it. A main-thread path is kept as a fallback for browsers without
`OffscreenCanvas` / `transferControlToOffscreen`, and Safari workers
(which lack rAF) fall back to a fixed-interval loop. The renderer is a
pure, DOM-free module so it bundles cleanly into the worker; dot colors
come from CSS vars read on the main thread and passed in.

Also fires for every onboarding completion path and skips the billing
`PlanRequired` detour.

Installation

Cloud

The fastest way to get started. Sign up at twenty.com and spin up a workspace in under a minute, with no infrastructure to manage and always up to date.

Build an app

Scaffold a new app with the Twenty CLI:

npx create-twenty-app my-app

Define objects, fields, and views as code:

import { defineObject, FieldType } from 'twenty-sdk/define';

export default defineObject({
  nameSingular: 'deal',
  namePlural: 'deals',
  labelSingular: 'Deal',
  labelPlural: 'Deals',
  fields: [
    { name: 'name', label: 'Name', type: FieldType.TEXT },
    { name: 'amount', label: 'Amount', type: FieldType.CURRENCY },
    { name: 'closeDate', label: 'Close Date', type: FieldType.DATE_TIME },
  ],
});

Then ship it to your workspace:

npx twenty app:publish --private

See the app development guide for objects, views, agents, and logic functions.

Self-hosting

Run Twenty on your own infrastructure with Docker Compose, or contribute locally via the local setup guide.
