Here's that @CodePen link! 🚀 (Which I may or may have not forgotten to post yesterday 👀) Got the "Final boss" border demo that people have been asking for tomorrow 🤞😅
I think with this and :has I'll be pretty happy for a while. If I get a :stuck for position: sticky I will dance in the street.
Now this really is something new to me.. banking this!
Succulent
Long time no see thnx
Oh wow that looks cool I need this ..thankuuuuuu
Yeah i tried it too to animate some buttons, works fine on nearly square items, as soon as you do more rectangle shapes, the animation seems to slow down on the corners and the shorts edges... Any tips on how to bypass that ? gg anyway !
Got jus' the thing you need 🤙
Sheesh
Which tool was that for showing separate layers?
Straight up CSS 🤙
![CSS Tip! 🤙 You can use mask-composite and some JavaScript to create this pointer proximity following glow border ✨ .glow { mask-composite: intersect; mask-clip: padding-box, border-box; mask: linear-gradient(#0000, #0000), conic-gradient(#0000 0deg, #fff, #0000 45deg); } The trick is to mask a background-image with a combination of mask layers. mask-composite: intersect; means the mask used will be the intersection of the layers 🔥 use source-in, xor; in browsers that don't support intersect; In this demo, you can use pseudoelements and rely on scoped custom properties to do a lot of the heavy lifting for you 🙌 Once you've masked the background, you need to update the starting angle of the conic-gradient on pointermove 👆 You can work that out by getting the center point of each card and then calculating the angle between that and the pointer with Math.atan2 🤓 let ANGLE = Math.atan2( event?.y - CARD_CENTER[1], event?.x - CARD_CENTER[0] ) * 180 / Math.PI ANGLE = ANGLE < 0 ? ANGLE + 360 : ANGLE; CARD.style.setProperty('--start', ANGLE + 90) You plug that into your conic-gradient mask as a custom property accounting for --spread ⚡️ conic-gradient(from calc((var(--angle) - (var(--spread) * 0.5)) * 1deg), #000 0deg, #fff, #0000 calc(var(--spread) * 1deg)); To get the blur, you apply a blur to the glow container on each card 🤙 .glows { filter: blur(calc(var(--blur) * 1px); } That's it! Layers of masks that are clipped and composited before being blurred 😎 The added trick is to fade each one in when the pointer is in the defined proximity of the card. For example, don't show unless within 100px of a card. You can see that in the video. Check out the JavaScript code for that 🫶 Couldn't resist making this one 😁 CodePen.IO link below! 👇](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1734369933558010226/ext_tw_video_thumb/1734365662590418944/pu/img/320Dgq_k3RZoZOFV.jpg)
![CSS Tip! ✨ It's 2024 and you have a new way to make animated borders 🚀 .glow::after { offset-path: rect(0 100% 100% 0 round var(--radius)); animation: loop; } @keyframes loop { to { offset-distance: 100%; }} Using the offset-* properties you can animate elements along the perimeter of others 😍 The rect() value gained support in Safari 17.2 🙌 To start, you create an element and put it inside your main element. For example, you put a span inside the button 🤙 Click me! Make the element fill its parent with absolute positioning and inset [data-glow] { position: absolute; inset: 0; } Now the good part, you use a pseudoelement on that element and define an offset-path [data-glow]::after { content: ""; offset-path: rect(0 auto auto 0 round var(--radius)); animation: loop 2.6s infinite linear; } With the rect value, you are saying the path fills the parent container: top: 0 right: auto || 100% bottom: auto || 100% left: 0 Then you can use round to make sure the path uses the same radius as whatever the parent has The @keyframes animation merely animates the offset-distance of that pseudoelement to 100% @keyframes loop { to { offset-distance: 100%; }} You can see this more clearly in the video 🫶 The offset-* properties also include an offset-anchor property. This allows you to dictate which point of the element follows the path. For example: anchor-offset: 100% 50%; This means that the "right, center" of the element will follow the perimeter of the parent element 🤙 Lastly, the visuals 🎨 For color, you can use a gradient such as a linear gradient to fill the pseudo-element. [data-glow]::after { background: radial-gradient( circle at right, hsl(320 90% 100%), transparent 50% ); } Then clip away everything so you only have the border and can still have translucent backgrounds, etc. Use a mask with mask-composite ✨ A little transparent border trick: [data-glow] { border: 2px solid transparent; mask: linear-gradient(transparent, transparent), linear-gradient(white, white); mask-clip: padding-box, border-box; mask-composite: intersect; } Bit of a long one. Hope you find it useful 🙏 CodePen.IO link below 👇](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1752903535488823789/ext_tw_video_thumb/1752900027591151616/pu/img/d0sViTqgbe8N-yux.jpg)
![CSS Trick! ⚡️ You can use scroll-driven animation with background-attachment to create a dynamic glowing card scroller without JS 🔥 section { animation:vibe; animation-timeline:--list; } @keyframes vibe { to{--hue:320;}} .glow {background: hsl(var(--hue) 80% 50%);} Here's how! 🤙 You can use the background-attachment trick used in other glow card demos 😎 article { background-attachment: fixed; } The difference here is that you aren't going to update the fixed background position with your pointer this time. It can remain fixed. The magic part is that as you scroll, the background will leave the card that's leaving and enter the card that's entering ✨ For the extra background glow, you can use a fixed pseudo element on the list container itself 💪 Once that's in place, you're only task is to change the color of the background as you scroll 🤔 Create a custom property declaration for the --hue @property --base { inherits: true; syntax: ' '; initial-value: 0; } Then create an animation that updates this value @keyframes accent { to { --hue: 320; }} The last piece is hooking it up to scroll and there is a little trick in here 👀 First, you need an inline scroll-timeline on the list ul { scroll-timeline: --list inline; } Then you can use timeline-scope to hoist that scroll-timeline up so a parent can use it. You then animate the custom property on this element and let the value cascade down to the places that need it 🔥 section { timeline-scope: --list; animation: accent both linear; animation-timeline: --list; } For example, the glow uses the --hue this way [data-glow] { background-image: radial-gradient( 150px 150px at 50% 50%, hsl(var(--hue) 100% 70% / 0.25), transparent ); } Lastly, scroll-snap is optional of course but plays nice with the scroll-driven animation demos ✨ The key for that is ul { scroll-snap-type: x mandatory; } li { scroll-snap-align: center; } That's it! Pretty fun trick to play with! 🤓 Any questions, let me know! Should we add it to the video walkthrough list?

![CSS Tip! 🚥 You can create these trending expanding scroll indicators with scroll-driven animations and flex 🤙 .indicator { animation: grow; animation-range: contain calc(50% - var(--size)...; animation-timeline: var(--card); } @keyframes grow { 50% { flex: 3; }} What's the trick? Put the indicators in a container using flex layout and set a width larger than the number of indicators 😉 .indicators { aspect-ratio: 7 / 1; display: flex; } Importantly, set no gap 🤏 To mimic the gap set a transparent border on each indicator and set the background using padding-box .indicator { background: linear-gradient(#fff, #fff) padding-box; border-radius: 50px; border: 4px solid transparent; } Now for the animation. You want to create a view-timeline for each card that moves across 🤙 li:nth-of-type(1) { view-timeline: --one inline; } li:nth-of-type(2) { view-timeline: --two inline; } Make sure they use the inline axis too! The trick is hoisting these view-timeline so the indicators can use them with timeline-scope 👀 .track { timeline-scope: --one, --two, ...; } All that's left is for you to create the animation piece using some calc with the card size ⚡️ .indicator { --size: calc(var(--card-width) * 0.9); animation: grow both linear; animation-range: contain calc(50% - var(--size)) contain calc(50% + var(--size)); } .indicator:nth-of-type(1) { animation-timeline: --one; } .indicator:nth-of-type(2) { animation-timeline: --two; } @keyframes grow { 50% { flex: 3; }} And there you have it, responsive scroll indicators using CSS scroll-driven animations 😎 Sprinkle a little JavaScript to make them clickable and scroll the the right card ✨ const shift = (event) => { if (event.target.tagName === "BUTTON") { const index = [...event.target.parentNode.children].indexOf(event.target); const item = document.querySelector(`li:nth-of-type(${index + 1})`); item.scrollIntoView({ behavior: "smooth", inline: "center" }); } }; As always, any questions or suggestions, let me know. I've put a JavaScript fallback in to use GSAP in browsers that don't have scroll-driven animations 🫶 CodePen.IO link below! 👇](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1743737760773705824/ext_tw_video_thumb/1743734045748641792/pu/img/nFQ1z9S-iN4AY8SN.jpg)
![CSS Tip! 🤯 You can create a CSS-only version of this balance slider using a scroll animation on the underlying input[type=range] 🚀 ::-webkit-slider-thumb { view-timeline: --thumb inline; } Scroll animation driven by the slider thumb animates a number between the "min" and "max" of the range 😅 @property --value { inherits: true; initial-value: 0; syntax: ' '; } @keyframes sync { to { --value: 100; }} Tie that up to the contain animation-range ⚡️ .control { animation: sync both linear reverse; animation-timeline: --thumb; animation-range: contain; } Hoist the view timeline so all the parts of the control can use it! .control { timeline-scope: --thumb; } Use that value in a counter which is used for the labels. Create a low and a high for each side 😇 .control__label { counter-reset: low var(--value) high calc(100 - var(--value)); } .control__label::before { content: "COFFEE " counter(low) "%"; } .control__label::after { content: counter(high) "% MILK"; } That's the magic of updating the label values ✨ For the big track, it's a fake track. You can make use of the same --value property and do some calc() to work out the width of each part. .control__track::before { width: calc(var(--value) * 1% - 0.5rem); background: var(--coffee); border-radius: 4px; transition: width 0.1s; } The width leaves a little gap for the indicator piece 🤙 The color calculation for --coffee isn't too wild but again you can use the same --value .control__track { --coffee: hsl(24 74% calc( 24% + (30% * ((100 - var(--value, 0)) / 100)) / 1 ) / 0.4); } Now for the last piece. Making the track change height. You could set up another custom property and animate its value using the --thumb timeline too 🔥 @property --shift { initial-value: 0; inherits: true; syntax: ' '; } @keyframes shift { 0%, 31%, 61%, 100% { --shift: 0; } 32%, 60% { --shift: 1; } } Then use that --shift to update the translation of the label and height of the track 🤓 .label { transform: translateY(calc(var(--shift) * 50%)); transition: transform var(--speed) var(--timing); } Cool part here is that you can use the control to work out the @keyframes percentages 😅 Oh. And the timing for that little bounce? Use the linear() function 😎 :root { --timing: linear( 0, 0.5007 7.21%, 0.7803 12.29%, 0.8883 14.93%, 0.9724 17.63%, 1.0343 20.44%, 1.0754 23.44%, 1.0898 25.22%, 1.0984 27.11%, 1.1014 29.15%, 1.0989 31.4%, 1.0854 35.23%, 1.0196 48.86%, 1.0043 54.06%, 0.9956 59.6%, 0.9925 68.11%, 1 ); } Should probably do a video on this one. Lots of little custom property tricks for sure! 💯 It's not too far off the range slider with the tooltip that came up previously As always, any questions, let me know! Also, this one only works in Chrome currently ✅🥲 This one's a bit rocket science ha 🚀 CodePen.IO link below! 👇](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1748809599598399792/ext_tw_video_thumb/1748804672406843392/pu/img/xbvSosI5c_q3Oq2B.jpg)
