Mastering CSS Animations
- 2. About me ? Hi, I¡¯m GoodBytes ? I teach web development to my Interactive Multimedia Design students in Mechelen, Belgium. More info at http://www.weareimd.be ? I¡¯m a freelance web developer, get in touch via http://www.goodbytes.be or just shoot me a message on Twitter @GoodBytes
- 3. About this slide deck ? I used this slide deck during a workshop I gave about CSS animations and uploaded them upon request ? The slides will probably lose about 80% of their meaning without the accompanying explanation and demo¡¯s given during the workshop ? All screenshots you see are actually video¡¯s to demo an animation. Like I said, this deck will lose about 80% of its meaning without the videos and matching explanation ? If you¡¯d like to get a thorough workshop about CSS animations, feel free to get in touch with me at http://www.goodbytes.be
- 4. When was the last time something on the web delighted you?
- 14. you will be creating animations where you call a transform that uses a translate function
- 16. transitions ? an animation between changes ? properties we want to animate need to be de?ned explicitly ? can be triggered by adding classes of using pseudo-selectors like :hover ? example 1: change button color on hover (and animate it!) ? example 2: motion by changing the position of an element
- 17. transitions ? transition: property duration timing-function delay;? transition: background-color 5s linear 1s;
- 18. <div id="circle"></div>! #circle! {! ! width: 200px;! ! height: 200px;! ! background-color: white;! ! border-radius: 50%;! ! transition: height 1s linear, width 1s linear, background-color 5s linear 1s;! }! ! #circle:hover! {! ! height: 300px;!! ! width: 300px;! ! background-color: red;! }!
- 20. transitions ? transitioning properties like left and margin cause a browser to recalculate styles every frame. ? repaints (visibility) & re?ows (layout) ? can be bad for performance, especially on slower mobile devices ? solution: use CSS transformations to enable GPU hardware acceleration where appropriate
- 21. using translate using top/left coordinates
- 22. transform(ation)s ? physically change the look of an element ? example 1: change the size of an element ? example 2: rotate/spin an element ? example 3: move an element ? can be 2D or 3D
- 23. transitions with transforms <div id="shape"></div>! #shape! {! ! width: 150px;! ! height: 150px;! ! background-color: #e74c3c;! ! transition: -webkit-transform 1s;! }! ! #shape:hover! {! ! -webkit-transform: scale(2) translateY(100px) rotate(45deg);! }!
- 25. you will be creating animations where you call a transform that uses a translate function
- 27. animations vs. transitions transitions animations go from A to B got from A (over B, C, D, E) to ¡ via keyframes need to be triggered somehow can start automatically and loop you have to be formal about which properties you want to animate Transforms are ways to change your shapes with scale(), rotate(), skew(),¡
- 28. 2D transforms ? translate() ? rotate() ? scale() ? skew() ? matrix() = all of the above
- 29. <div id="square"></div>! #square! {! ! width: 200px;! ! height: 200px;! ! background-color: white;! ! border-radius: 10%;! ! margin-left: 0px;! ! transition: -webkit-transform 0.5s;! }! ! #square:hover, #square.automatic! {! ! -webkit-transform: scale(2.2) translate(200px, 100px) skew(10deg) rotate(45deg);! }!
- 31. animations ? keyframes ? can loop ? can start automatically
- 32. <div id="square" class="automatic"></div>! .automatic! {! ! -webkit-animation: moveIt 2s infinite;! }! @-webkit-keyframes moveIt! {! ! 0% { }! ! 25% { -webkit-transform: rotate(45deg);}! ! 50% { left:50%; top: 50%; -webkit-transform: scale(2.5) rotate(45deg);}! ! 100% { -webkit-transform: rotate(0deg);}! }!
- 34. 3D transforms ? -webkit-transform: perspective(300px) rotateY(20deg); ? perspective() sets the angle of the view ? the higher the value the further you are away from the element ? the lower the value the closer you are to the element ? your will be using rotateY() and rotateX() the most ? x,y,z
- 35. y-axis x-axis
- 40. <div id="element" class="flipInY"></div>! .flipInY! {! ! -webkit-transform-origin: left bottom;!! ! -webkit-animation: flipInY 1s;! ! ! ! ! -webkit-animation-fill-mode: forwards;! }! ! @-webkit-keyframes flipInY! {! ! 0% { -webkit-transform: perspective(400px) rotateY( 90deg ); opacity: 0; }! ! 40% { -webkit-transform: perspective(400px) rotateY( -10deg ); }! ! 70% { -webkit-transform: perspective(400px) rotateY( 10deg ); }! ! 100% { -webkit-transform: perspective(400px) rotateY( 0deg ); opacity: 1; }! }!
- 43. you will be creating animations where you call a transform that uses a translate function
- 45. Get to work: animation1
- 46. Get to work: animation2
- 47. pitfalls
- 48. web dev hell
- 49. browser support ? do I need vendor pre?xes? ? fallbacks? jQuery¡¯s .animate()? ? transforms on older browsers: cssSandpaper ? performance (especially on mobile) ? test test test! ? use transforms instead of top/left/margin
- 51. considerations ? does the animation distract from the information it should be supporting? ? does your solution work on *any* device? ? what¡¯s the worst case scenario?
