    Would like to build a 3d set of waves from particles (happy if it doesn't look like a real ocean and more like a transparent particle set of waves). If you have any advice, would love to learn your recommendations + any tutorials or guides can help do something like this?

    You can look for information about Gerstner waves for instance and use the formula to position / animate your particles.
