Front end developers have been asking for the ability to design these interactions within HTML and CSS, without the use of JavaScript or Flash, for years. Now their wish has come true.

Animation of How CSS Triangles Work

The root of the trick is that borders on elements meet each other at angles. So if one is transparent and the other isn’t, it appears as if the whole shape is a triangle.

Replacing Subtle Flash Animations with CSS3

I often come across instances of animations and other effects that look like perfect candidates to be switched to equivalent CSS3-based solution. I recently came across a website called 84Colors, which belongs to a freelance designer named Cristiana Bardeanu.On that site, you’ll notice there are a number of subtle animations that integrate nicely with her overall brand and design. Her animations are done using Flash. I thought it would be fun to grab some of those elements and create a CSS3-based page that mimicked what those Flash-based objects do.

In today’s post, we’ll be taking a look at how you can use CSS3 transitions to power your application’s animations with jQuery’s .animate() method as a fallback where transitions aren’t supported. The benefit of transitions is that unlike JavaScript based animations, they’re hardware accelerated in certain browsers and mobile devices, resulting in a potentially smoother overall animation than you would normally experience.
