Here's the @CodePen for this one 🚀 Input anything and it'll randomly type it out 👇 Could easily turn it into a little component or something. Threw this one together quick with GSAP

so good man. wow the amount of times i wrote this in js in the last 15 years is insane

Ha 😅 This way there's more time to focus on adding random natural pauses. Put in a rudimentary solution where it randomly pauses on spaces and then changes the wpm 🤔

Your codepen setup to showcase stuff is SO good. I love the demos but the controls are what make them pop the most. Amazing stuff!

🔥 Tailwind Tip 🔥 Create a "color background split" effect with CSS Grid. It greatly simplifies the spacing adjustment gymnastics you need to do when using transforms to translate your element across both sections ✨

It's a bit crazy to be able to just tell AI what to do and watch it work. Probably the most underutilized ability at the moment. You can ask it to scrape content, create credentials in a dashboard, update a doc, etc. There are basically no limits. API for the whole web with Comet.

CSS Trick 📜 You can trigger text highlights on scroll with scroll-driven animations 😎 mark { animation: highlight; animation-timeline: view(); } @keyframes highlight { to { --lit: 1; }} mark span { background-position: calc(var(--lit) * -110%) 0; transition: background 1s; } The trick is using a scroll-driven animation to flip a custom property on a element 🎚️ You flip the value between 0 and 1, and that transitions the background position of the element mark { --lit: 0; animation: highlight steps(1) both; animation-timeline: view(); animation-range: entry 100% cover 10%; } The background has to be applied on a child of the mark to see the change in the custom property 👀 mark span { background: linear-gradient( 120deg, yellow 50%, transparent 50%) 110% 0 / 220% 100% no-repeat; background-position: calc(var(--lit) * 110%) 0; transition: background-position 1s; } The trick is to set the background-size so that it's bigger than the element and then split the background-color in the middle using a linear-gradient 🤙 And the property flips fills in the color 🫶 That's it! If there isn't support for scroll-driven animations, use JavaScript's IntersectionObserver API. The code for this is in the demo 😎 Cool example of using CSS as an IntersectionObserver!
