How badly does it affect performance?

jhey ▲🐻🎈2 years ago

Definitely one to test out a bit before you'd ship it. But that's kinda why I put this together. For example, Safari is gonna prefer using direct blur masked elements overlaid 🤙

I'd say we need a native progressive blur in CSS

Pult2 years ago

As a developer, you have to know that blur uses a lot of CPU. As a designer, I once added so much blur that for 3 weeks the developers couldn't understand why the site was almost death)

jhey ▲🐻🎈2 years ago

Used with caution. But, this is one I get requests for a lot

How is everyone testing performance? What is your go, no-go threshold?

Looks sick! You are really on a roll lately 🤘✨

I recently saw something like this but it was at the top of the site as you scrolled up it blurred (less blur than this) and thought it was a nice little touch.

CSS Trick ⚡️ (˗ˏˋ rogie ˎˊ˗ challenge edition 🤙) You can create this secret code reveal with only CSS using :has() and trig functions 🔥 .digit::hover + .digit, .digit:has(+ .digit:hover) { --active: var(--lerp-1); } :root { --lerp-1: calc(sin(50deg)); } .digit { scale: calc(var(--active) + 0.5); } There are a couple of moving parts. The first thing we can do is set up a scale. :root { --lerp-0: 1; /* === sin(90deg) */ --lerp-1: calc(sin(50deg)); --lerp-2: calc(sin(45deg)); --lerp-3: calc(sin(35deg)); --lerp-4: calc(sin(25deg)); --lerp-5: calc(sin(15deg)); } The digit styles define scale and blur. They also dictate the transition duration .digit { transition: scale calc(((1 - var(--active, 0)) + 0.2) * 1s); } When a digit is hovered, then you can set the --active custom property based on the digit position 🤙 The digit that is hovered. .digit:hover { --active: var(--lerp-0); } And the digit on either side of that hovered digit .digit:is(:hover, :focus-visible) + .digit, .digit:has(+ .digit:is(:hover, :focus-visible)) { --active: var(--lerp-1); } We can select the previous sibling using :has() and the next sibling with the sibling combinator (+) And that's it! ⭐️ That's how you create these hover scale interactions with CSS 🙌 We're jus' waiting on Firefox for :has() support. When that lands, it'll likely break the internet 😅 CodePen.IO link below! 👇

$CSS Tip! 🤙 You can use mask-composite and some JavaScript to create this pointer proximity following glow border ✨ .glow { mask-composite: intersect; mask-clip: padding-box, border-box; mask: linear-gradient(#0000, #0000), conic-gradient(#0000 0deg, #fff, #0000 45deg); } The trick is to mask a background-image with a combination of mask layers. mask-composite: intersect; means the mask used will be the intersection of the layers 🔥 use source-in, xor; in browsers that don't support intersect; In this demo, you can use pseudoelements and rely on scoped custom properties to do a lot of the heavy lifting for you 🙌 Once you've masked the background, you need to update the starting angle of the conic-gradient on pointermove 👆 You can work that out by getting the center point of each card and then calculating the angle between that and the pointer with Math.atan2 🤓 let ANGLE = Math.atan2( event?.y - CARD_CENTER[1], event?.x - CARD_CENTER[0] ) * 180 / Math.PI ANGLE = ANGLE < 0 ? ANGLE + 360 : ANGLE; CARD.style.setProperty('--start', ANGLE + 90) You plug that into your conic-gradient mask as a custom property accounting for --spread ⚡️ conic-gradient(from calc((var(--angle) - (var(--spread) * 0.5)) * 1deg), #000 0deg, #fff, #0000 calc(var(--spread) * 1deg)); To get the blur, you apply a blur to the glow container on each card 🤙 .glows { filter: blur(calc(var(--blur) * 1px); } That's it! Layers of masks that are clipped and composited before being blurred 😎 The added trick is to fade each one in when the pointer is in the defined proximity of the card. For example, don't show unless within 100px of a card. You can see that in the video. Check out the JavaScript code for that 🫶 Couldn't resist making this one 😁 CodePen.IO link below! 👇$

CSS Trick! 🤙 You can create gradient borders on translucent elements using mask-clip and mask-composite with a pseudo-element 🔥 .gradient-border::after { mask-clip: padding-box, border-box; mask-composite: intersect; mask: linear-gradient(transparent, transparent), linear-gradient(white, white); } It's the same "Transparent border trick" from before. But, now you apply it to a pseudo-element 😎 The trick is to create a pseudo-element with a gradient background and then mask it so we only see the part we want, the border ✨ mask-clip defines the area affected by a mask. Similar to how you can define background-size. Using padding-box and border-box constrains the two masks. mask-composite is the magic part ✨ It defines a compositing operation for stacked mask layers. Using intersect means that the parts that overlap get replaced. And this seems to work in all browsers 🙌 As for the rest of the styles... – Make sure you set pointer-events: none on the pseudo-element – Make sure it fills the parent element. You can use position: absolute and inset: 0 – Make sure the background fills the space including the border-width. You can use calc to achieve that: --bg-size: calc(100% + (2px * var(--border))); background: var(--gradient) center center / var(--bg-size) var(--bg-size); That's it! 🚀 Gradient borders on translucent elements. You can set all the backdrop-filter: blur() you like! 😅 CodePen.IO link below! 👇

CSS Trick! 🎃 You can create a wavey border for elements by layering masks 🎭 Used to create this ghost! 👻 Check the video for an exploding view 🫶 .👻 { --size: 20px; mask: radial-gradient(var(--size) at bottom, transparent 97%, #000), radial-gradient(var(--size) at 25% 50%, #000 97%, transparent); mask-repeat: repeat-x; mask-size: calc(2 * var(--size)) 100%, calc(4 * var(--size)) calc(2 * var(--size)); mask-position: 50% calc(100% - var(--size)), calc(50% - var(--size)) 99%; } That code looks kinda scary! 👻 This is one way you could do things. Check the video again or explode in the demo. One mask cuts out circles from the bottom of the element. The other adds overlaid circles back. And that overlap creates the wavey line you want for the ghost 🤙 Using a custom property you can write once and not have to touch again. Update the custom property to update the wave size as shown in the video 🎬 The last piece of the puzzle is animating the mask-position to create that animation @ keyframes flow { to { mask-position: calc(50% + (var(--size) * 4)) calc(100% - var(--size)), calc((50% - var(--size)) + (var(--size) * 4)) 99%; } } If you play with the demo, you may find some Easter eggs!

CSS Tip! 🎠 You can create a responsive infinite marquee animation with container queries and no duplicate items 🤙 li{ animation: slide; } @keyframes slide { to { translate: 0% calc(var(--i) * -100%);}} The trick is animating the items, not the list 😎 More tricks 👇 To get this one working, you need to animate the items and not the list (Watch the video first?). Each item needs to know its row index (--i) in the list and the parent needs to know how many rows are in the list: ul { --count: 12; } li:nth-of-type(1), li:nth-of-type(2) { --i: 0; } li:nth-of-type(3), li:nth-of-type(4) { --i: 1; } Once you have that, translate each item based on its row index in the list li { translate: 0% calc((var(--count) - var(--i)) * 100%); } Now for the animation. The key here is that each row has an animation-delay calculated from its index (--i). That number is offset to make it negative so the animation start is offset ✨ ul { --duration: 10s; } li { --delay: calc((var(--duration) / var(--count)) * (var(--i) - 8)); animation: slide var(--duration) var(--delay) infinite linear; } Make sure to wrap that animation in: @media (prefers-reduced-motion: no-preference) { ... } Lastly, the fun parts! 🤓 To create the "vignette" mask. Use a layered mask on the container 😷 .scene { --buff: 3rem; height: 100%; width: 100%; mask: linear-gradient(transparent, white var(--buff) calc(100% - var(--buff)), transparent), linear-gradient(90deg, transparent, white var(--buff) calc(100% - var(--buff)), transparent); mask-composite: intersect; } To create the 3D skewed effect, use a chained transform (Try toggling it in the demo ⚡️): .grid { transform: rotateX(20deg) rotateZ(-20deg) skewX(20deg); } As for the responsive part, use container queries! 🔥 article { container-type: inline-size; } When the article (card) is narrower than 400px update the grid and animation settings 🤙 Double the rows means double the duration! @container (width < 400px) { .grid { --count: 12; grid-template-columns: 1fr; } li:nth-of-type(1) { --i: 0; } li:nth-of-type(2) { --i: 1; } li:nth-of-type(3) { --i: 2; } li:nth-of-type(4) { --i: 3; } li { --duration: 20s; } } CSS has the magic to be able to update those animations at runtime based on your custom property values 😎 An added bonus in this demo is that it doesn't require any JavaScript at all, for any of it 🤯 We can use CSS :has() for those toggles that update the styles, even the theme toggle! 🫶 Any questions, let me know!

CSS Trick 🫠 You can create gooey effects with filter using CSS or SVG if you want color 🎨 .blobs { filter: blur(20px) contrast(30); } .blobs { filter: url(#goo); } The trick is to blur the thing, then cut the blur off with contrast. You can make some cool effects with it ✨ The CSS approach is basic and limits you to black and white. You need to blur the subject and then use contrast to lessen the blur. .blobs { filter: blur(20px) contrast(30); } The SVG approach gives you a lot more freedom. That looks like a lot 😬 What the filter does is take some source and pipe it through different effects. At a high level, you're doing this: 1. Blur the subject with standard deviation "stdDeviation" 2. Mess with the alpha channel values inside feColorMatrix to get the contrast 3. Composite the effects Good thing with SVG filters is you can rinse and repeat and use them on other things 🤙 Have a play with the demo and check out the DevTools where you can see the effects of using different values CodePen.IO link below! 👇

🎓Learn how to create a powerful Worn Leather smart material in a matter of seconds in my latest video series (AAA) Pro Tips! This smart material can be used on virtually any 3D asset. ____________________________________________________ In this video, the steps are as follows: 1. Create a fill layer with a black mask applied. Inside its mask paint a simple pill shape and use a blur slope filter to introduce some random shapes. Apply a marble veins fill layer on top with its blending mode set to color burn. Apply a warp filter as well to introduce some randomness followed by an anchorpoint. 2. Create another fill layer using the same technique to apply some dirt in the crevices of the wear. 3. Next, Inside the main fill layer apply a tiling raw leather texture to its Color and roughness channel 4. Create an additional fill layer up top and apply a black mask to it.Inside this mask retrieve the anchorpoint information followed by a blur filter with a value of 6. Use a levels to increase the spread of the mask. Apply another marble veins matching the values of the marble veins fill layer that we previously added and set its blending mode to multiply. Lastly retrieve the anchorpoint information from the previous fill layer again but this time set its blending mode to subtract. This fill layers properties should have a dark diffuse color and a matte roughness. 5. Add another fill layer with a bright diffuse and height properties with a black mask applied to it. Inside its mask retrieve the anchorpoint information again followed by a blur slope. Apply the anchorpoint information again but this time set its blending mode to subtract. Now we have a worn leather effect wherever we paint using the paint layer created inside the callout mask! ____________________________________________________ More AAA Game Dev Tips can be found on my YouTube channel here: Stay tuned for more weekly Tips!

Create an additional fill layer up top and apply a black mask to it.Inside this mask retrieve the anchorpoint information followed by a blur filter with a value of 6. Use a levels to increase the spread of the mask. Apply another marble veins matching the values of the marble veins fill layer that we previously added and set its blending mode to multiply. Lastly retrieve the anchorpoint information from the previous fill layer again but this time set its blending mode to subtract. This fill layers properties should have a dark diffuse color and a matte roughness. 5. Add another fill layer with a bright diffuse and height properties with a black mask applied to it. Inside its mask retrieve the anchorpoint information again followed by a blur slope. Apply the anchorpoint information again but this time set its blending mode to subtract. Now we have a worn leather effect wherever we paint using the paint layer created inside the callout mask!

CSS Tip! ✨ You can lean into form control state and layered backgrounds to create input status strokes 😎 input:valid { --valid: 1; } input { background: var(--bg) padding-box, ..., var(--valid-bg) calc((1 - var(--valid)) * 100cqi) 0 / 100% 100% border-box; } The trick is to layer up backgrounds using background-clip to leave a border space 🤏 Applying a transparent border gives you the space for the layered background to transition in 🎞️ Then you can use custom properties to dictate the background-position of each layer. By default, the valid and invalid layers are positioned outside the bounding box. But when one of those states is active, the background layer transitions in to 0 0. To respect people's animations preferences, we can wrap that transition in a media query 🤙 @media (prefers-reduced-motion: no-preference) { input { transition: background-position: 0.5s; } } Was revisiting techniques around :has and :user-valid and it dawned that you could do it like this too! Hope you find it useful! p.s Don't rely on color to communicate form status. It's a cool trick though for an added touch ✨ CodePen.IO link below! 👇

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! 👇

Future UI && CSS Tip! 🔮 You could use View Transitions to animate CSS grid position and create an OSX-style exposé for a portfolio 🔥 It's a grid where things move based on state. Wrapped in a VT 🤙 [data-expose] section{ grid-area:var(--x)/var(--y); } CodePen.IO link below 👇

CSS Trick! ⚡️ You can create gradient borders by using transparent borders 👀 No extra elements 🤙 article { background: // layer them up with different origin! linear-gradient(var(--bg), var(--bg)) padding-box, var(--gradient) border-box; border: 4px solid transparent; } The trick is to layer background images using different background-origin ⭐️ Then use a transparent border to define how thick the border is! padding-box positions a background relative to an element's padding. border-box positions a background relative to the border-box 🔥 The ✨magic✨ part? You get that nested radius for free 😅 Check out the exploded view in the video and have a play with different values in the demo 🎞️ CodePen.IO link below! 👇

CSS Trick! ⭐️ You can create this sparkly backdrop with a single element using mask-composite whilst animating the mask-position 😷 .canvas { background: var(--gradient); mask: var(--dots), var(--noise); mask-composite: intersect /* source-in, xor */; animation: flicker; } @keyframes flicker { to { mask-position: 50% 50% , 0 50%; } } The trick is to layer the masks and then use the intersect value on the mask-composite ✨ Intersect works as it would in SVG by combining the masks and taking their intersection. The dots mask is a basic radial-gradient that is repeated across the element: mask: radial-gradient(circle at 50% 50%, white 2px, transparent 2.5px) 50% 50% / 40px 40px; The noise mask is a generated image of Perlin Noise (h/t to JohnPhamous for finding the site for that). That becomes the second mask: mask: url("noise.png") 50% 50% / 256px 256px; Once they are intersected. The last piece is to animate the mask-position as shown above 👆 Have a play with the demo and see what you think! CodePen.IO link below! 👇

CSS Trick 🤙 You can mask other elements with icons in CSS to create this glittery icon hover/interaction effect ✨ canvas { mask: url(/img/icons/next.svg); } Check this example, inspired by the new Vercel homepage treats that are dropping 🖤 (Had to have a go at whipping this up over food break 😅) 1. Create some that animate squares with different hue shades (Using GSAP to only animate on :hover with ticker ⏲️) 2. Mask each canvas with a desired icon 3. On :hover, fade in the animating canvas 🤙 Check out the exploding view! 🤯 CodePen.IO link below 👇
