WDS82 - CSS Transitions(Part 2)

In the last article, we learned the basics of CSS transitions and also implemented them in one example, where we changed the width of div slowly when we hover over it. We also have seen how to change two properties simultaneously. Now let's move forward to see some more ways to customize the transitions in CSS.

Speed Curve of the Transition

The transition-timing-function property in CSS helps to specify the speed curve of the transition effect. This speed curves decide how speed varies in given duration. This property can have one of the following values:
  • ease - This is the default value. In this transition starts effect starts slowly, then fast and ends with slow again.
  • linear - In this transition maintains same speed though start to end.
  • ease-in - Transition with slow start
  • ease-out - Transition with slow end
  • ease-in-out - Transition with slow start and slow end
  • cubic-bezier(n,n,n,n)- This transition let us define our own values for cubic bezier function
Let's see all the above(except the last one which we will see later) in the code...

Transition Delay

The transition-delay property specifies a delay(in seconds) for the transition effect to start. The transition effect will start after given time. For example in the following code, transition effect will start after 2 seconds and then will work as normal...

div {
    -webkit-transition-delay: 2s; /* Safari */
    transition-delay: 2s;
}

Transition + Transformation

We can add both of this things simultaneously. Let's see how... That's all for today. See how easily we created beautiful effects with transitions and transformations. In the next article, we will start animations in CSS to make even better-looking elements.
Till then #keepCoding.

Python Project - 1 (Password Locker)

Hello reader, this is my first post on this blog. I created this blog for various purposes including First and most importantly improve my coding Help others to learn various concepts in programming  To complete my hobby of blogging So, I am starting various series simultaneously, hope I will able to continue them. In this " Python Project " series, I will create simple python projects and will give step by step procedure to do that. I think you should first try to complete code yourself, then if you get stuck anywhere, feel free to check steps, refer complete code or comment for more help. Let's begin... Idea and Need: You probably have accounts on many different websites. It is a bad habit to have the same password and it is difficult to remember all passwords. So it is a good idea to use "Password Manager Software". So why not create it yourself? So let's see what steps you should follow... Steps: We have to create a menu which has the

WDS85 - Animate the CSS(Part 3)

In the last two articles, we learned about animations in CSS and various ways to customize them with the help of iterations and animation delays. Now in today's article, we are going to learn more about them so that to customize them even more. Let's begin... Reverse Directions and Alternate Cycles The animation-direction property in CSS decides whether we want to play animation forward, backward or in alternate cycles. Following values are possible: normal - This is the default. Animation plays as normal(forward). reverse - The animation plays in reverse direction that is backward. alternate - The animation first plays forward and then backward. alternate-reverse - The animation first plays backward and then forward. Speed Curve of Animation Just like we used various ways to customize transitions in CSS some articles before, same functions can be used to change the speed of the animation. The animation-timing-function property specifies the speed curve o

WDS84 - Animate the CSS(Part2 )

In the last article, we learned about animations in CSS. We learned about the important  @keyframes rule and also seen one example to use it in which we changed the background-color property of div using rules defined in keyframes. Now let's dive deep to learn more about it. Changing Two Properties Simultaneously In the example of the previous article, we just changed background-color using keyframes rule. Let's see the example in which we are changing background-color as well as the position of the div element. To work this properly we are going to position property of div value relative so that we can change it using keyframes. @keyframes myAnimation { 0 % { background-color : blue ; left : 0px ; top : 0px ;} 25 % { background-color : red ; left : 200px ; top : 0px ;} 50 % { background-color : yellow ; left : 200px ; top : 200px ;} 75 % { background-color : green ; left : 0px ; top : 200px ;} 100 % { background-
