Designing interactive animations with CSS has been both a creative and technical journey. The goal was to enhance the user experience on websites while demonstrating modern frontend development skills. Using techniques like clip masks, blend modes, and filters, I created smooth animations that make content visually engaging.
Each animation project challenged me to think about timing, user interaction, and performance. For example, one animation used clip-path and masking to reveal images dynamically as users scrolled. Another applied filter effects to manipulate brightness and color for a more immersive effect. Blending text with interactive backgrounds taught me how to draw attention without overwhelming users.
The process taught me the importance of responsiveness—animations must work well on desktop, tablet, and mobile. I also learned how to optimize animations to prevent lag, ensuring a smooth user experience. These skills are not just aesthetic—they improve engagement, usability, and professionalism of a website.
Exploring CSS animations has been incredibly rewarding. It combines technical precision with creativity and has strengthened my frontend development expertise, allowing me to craft websites that are both functional and visually appealing.
