Synfig doesn’t have a built-in particle layer, unfortunately. But, there’s a good particle template that can be used. See this topic for details: [Particle exporter and firework example](https://forums.synfig.org/t/particle-exporter-and-firework-example/3335/1)

Anyway, it would be cool to have a built-in particle layer or at least a plug-in, so I double this request. I remember the awesome guy with nickname darkspace was working on it, but don’t know if he succeeded yet.
