So I saw a demo in the @codepen Spark and I liked the idea, but it was too JS-heavy for my taste, plus I would have preferred the rotation animations to be "hinged" around the top/ bottom edge depending on direction.

So I did it with pure #CSS on scroll https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/JoKqRjZ

Pure #CSS #3D demo on @codepen: polyhedra morphing sequence https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/abmNveW

Absolutely no magic numbers, everything computed.

A little @codepen demo: resizable panels with draggable panel separators https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/gbPBxJP

Hopefully at least more accessible than the alternatives. The description has info about my testing this thing.

It is OK to Say “CSS Variables” Instead of (or Alongside) “Custom Properties”

TPAC 2025 just ended, and I am positively tired. Attending it remotely, my sleep schedule is chaotic right now. I have many ideas for CSS-related posts in my list of ideas for November, but almost all of them require at least some amount of research and crafting demos. Well! I found one note that I wanted to expand on, and which sounds tiny enough to be able to finish it in my altered state.

I have a new article out!

Super Simple Full-Bleed & Breakout Styles

Using a spooky made up Halloween recipe to illustrate concepts.

How would you do this? A gradient tinted image, the gradient tint gradually disappearing from left to right on hover, then coming back from left to right on exit.

✨ single `img` elem (so no pseudos)
✳️ cross-browser
🚫 no JS
🚫 no SVG filter

There are n equally sized items arranged in half a circle on the left, from top to bottom, with the same gap g in between. How do you do it? Cross-browser, same #CSS (≤20 declarations) should work when changing their number/ gap.

Try to code it yourself before checking my solution https://www.reddit.com/r/Frontend/comments/1oi4dfe/comment/nlzvlry/

PS: hope you like SVG filters because there's more cooking/ coming soon. Next thing *very* soon because it's functional (even if not pretty yet) & dying to share it.
