  1. HTML + CSS, Sun + Water codepen.io/danwilson/pen/GRQXozz
  2. Flipping nested rainbow boxes on CodePen [motion/spinning warning]: codepen.io/danwilson/pen/abqGjVp
  3. Really looking forward to re-reading (and discussing) Understanding Comics with the @austinkleon book club next month… I lost count how many people call this a foundational book to their profession (and no… not just people in the comic book industry) app.literati.com/book/understanding-comics
  4. This is an old demo, but it's fun to check back on old ones & find improved browser support. - d now supported/animatable via CSS in Firefox 97 - Safari has advanced WAAPI support & has started on CSS Motion Path in Tech Preview Banners in the Wind: codepen.io/danwilson/pen/PQddxe
  5. In CSS-Motion-Path-Still-Has-New-Things News: Safari Tech Preview 137 introduces new options for offset-path such as circle, ellipse, & polygon: codepen.io/danwilson/details/MWErdKL [alt: A smiley face keeps animates its offset distance from 0 to 100% while changing its offset path]
  6. I mean... Malala's book club reading & discussing Amanda Gorman's poetry collection together on @literati has me feeling all right heading into January 2022. app.literati.com/book/call-us-what-we-carry
  7. 500 ornaments lighting up a tree on @CodePen with Math, blend modes, and opacity animations: codepen.io/danwilson/full/MWvNYQq
  8. An Icy/Wintry Tree for the Holidays on @CodePen codepen.io/danwilson/full/VwzNLYd
  9. 📹New post: An interactive introduction to camera and microphone APIs on the web: danielcwilson.com/blog/2021/11/user-media/
  10. I made a second #divtober thing! Add that to my 3 chalktobers, 0 inktobers, 10 get-kid-on-to-school-tobers, and 3 made-it-through-the-day-tobers and October's looking all right. Oh right, divtober: Shine on @CodePen codepen.io/danwilson/full/ExvPevO (twinkles in Edge/Chrome)
  11. Squiggly Single Div Snow Accumulation for @lynnandtonic's delightful #divtober 16: Snow (I decided to focus on CSS Houdini/property things... so it's one of those Edge/Chrome only things today, as I've not handled a fallback animation) codepen.io/danwilson/full/MWvKXVM
  12. Clip Paths as a framing device for a full screen animation on @CodePen codepen.io/danwilson/full/rNzNQWZ
  13. I had big hopes for this Web Animations API game demo in 2015. It was a sequel to a finished game, but was going to have many levels with different gameplay options. It's still fun to me in its basic drag-to-find-the-palindrome demo form. So here it is: palindrama.danielcwilson.com
  14. Finding a *bunch* of old game ideas I sketched out as demos on CodePen but never translated to the full games I dreamed them to be. Going to spend this week getting them all on netlify and subdomain them up to my site even though they aren't "finished" Tweets forthcoming.
  15. #dzy If you look closely enough it almost appears as though the circles move and change colors... on @CodePen: codepen.io/danwilson/full/LYLpydE

  1. The Basics of Handwriting SVG Paths (Part 1): <path d="M 40,20 L 180,280" /> M: Move the cursor to the following x,y coordinate without drawing anything L: draw a straight Line from the previous coordinate to the following x,y coordinate #CssMotionPath
  2. Independent transform properties are now also supported in Firefox 72! developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Releases/72 So, for example, you can use translate: 20px 20px and animate/transition separately from any rotation, scaling, and everything in the transform function list
  3. OH: I'm a mobile web developer, so I basically spend all day getting requests for content to stick to the top after some scrolling
  4. In CSS Motion Path in Chrome Canary news: offset-path is now animatable itself, in addition to offset-distance: codepen.io/danwilson/pen/vxQKvm
  5. Important thing to remember with the new CSS Motion Path & independent transform properties: They all get applied in a specific order in addition to the original transform property: 1. translate 2. rotate 3. scale 4. offset-path (& friends) 5. transform codepen.io/danwilson/full/abzGPmG
  6. All CSS transformations (transform, independent translate/scale/rotate, motion path) are affected by transform-origin. This example also highlights that an independent ‘rotate’ is applied before an offset path whereas ‘transform:rotate’ is after. codepen.io/danwilson/full/KKwXXqN
