Because someone just hearted this demo I made over half a decade ago on @codepen:

https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/bGEBObR

It's a pure #CSS Platonic solids gallery. They animate on hover/ tap. All is computed, there are no magic numbers.

Because this got asked on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/css/comments/1o069yi/comment/ni8evf4/

Made a demo with various options for angled grid columns. Uses mathematical computations to ensure all fits just right all the time, regardless of viewport or number of columns.

A little thing I made on @codepen.io: breathing with `shape()`
https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/vEEqMWo

`shape()` is supported in Chrome 135+ and Safari 18.4+.

Firefox 126+ supports it for simple shapes (but not for this demo) when setting thelayout.css.basic-shape-shape.enabled to true in about:config.

Someone asked how to create such cross-browser wave dividers that keep the same height as the width changes, so here's my take on it https://www.reddit.com/r/css/comments/1kcmabf/comment/mq5ck6m/

`mask` is another option, but needs an extra container and container query units, so not as well supported, plus it wouldn't be exactly the same shape.

#tinyCSStip `clip-path` or `mask` are applied after `filter`.

This means we cannot clip/ mask, then add a `drop-shadow()` on the same element for the clipped/ masked shape.

We need to apply the `filter` on a parent of the clipped/ masked (pseudo-)element.

Here's a quick breathing box demo with `clip-path: shape()` on @codepen.io: https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/ZYENVOQ

Working in Chrome 135 and Safari 18.4! 🥳🎉

I haven't had the time to do anything for this week's #CodePenChallenge yet, but here are some older card demos:

From 5+ years ago: pure #CSS 1 element bevel cards! No SVG or images save for the cat, real (semi)transparency inside borders and all.

Because I saw a @codepen demo creating a hex grid using my well over a decade old nested and reverted transforms technique to get the shape + MQs...

Here's a super simple modern #CSS grid + clip-path + mathematical functions responsive version with no breakpoints https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/QwWQqeR

Know how border-image & border-radius don't play nice together?

(interactive https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/jxZyed)

#tinyCSStip there's a workaround IF corner radius ≤ border-width: use inset() clip-path + a round value!

clip-path: inset(0 round $r)
