Customization:
- dotCount: Amounts of dots used to draw the earth map, adjust it for your needs
- earthRadius: Adjusts the radius of the earth in the globe.
- dotSize: Sets the size of the dots displayed on the globe, by default, it is 0.005.
- enablesParticles: Enables or disables particle effects, by default, background is starry.
- particles: Sets the particle system for the globe's background.
- background
- earthNode: You can directly access to the earthNode to customize the earth itself
- earthColor: Sets the color of the earth on the globe.
- glowColor: Sets the color of the earth's glow effect.
- reflectionColor: Sets the color of the earth's reflection effect.

## SwiftUI

```swift
import SwiftUI
import DotGlobe

struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
GlobeView()
}
}
```

You can use all the parameters above to customize the globe. Because of the performance issues, you have to specify everything before dots and globe gets rendered, or dot cloud causes a massive rendering issue.
