Animating Properties: CSS allows you to animate various properties such as width
, height
, color
, opacity
, transform
, background
, and more.
@keyframes: Define keyframes using @keyframes
, specifying intermediate states of element properties from start to finish.
@keyframes slide-in {
from {
transform: translateX(-100%);
}
to {
transform: translateX(0);
}
}
animation Property: Use the animation
property to apply animations to an element, including parameters like animation name, duration, delay, easing function, and iteration count.
.box {
animation: slide-in 1s ease-out 0.5s forwards;
}
Types of Animations: CSS allows you to create various types of animations, including movement, resizing, color change, rotation, opacity change, and more.
Pseudo-classes: Utilize pseudo-classes like :hover
or :focus
to trigger animations when users interact with elements.
.button {
transition: background-color 0.3s ease;
}
.button:hover {
background-color: #ff0000;
}
Performance: CSS animations can be more performant than JavaScript-based animations, especially on mobile devices.
Combining Animations: Combine multiple animations by applying multiple @keyframes
or using sequential or parallel animations.
.box {
animation: slide-in 1s ease-out 0.5s forwards, fade-in 0.5s ease-out 1.5s forwards;
}
