It has already been posted by jeffschofield, but the original is here[1], along with a brief article breaking down the effect[2].

The one you posted is in many ways nicer though due to it all being a single shader, however it has the downside of the drops not interacting with each other.

Part 6 is live coding rain drops on glass in ShaderToy.

Hahha i was like. This is the "drive home" Martijn is an exceptional explainer I like his channel a lot. A great resource if you want to start programming shaders.
