What is an Animations CSS Generator


CSS animations allow you to change an element from one style to another gradually. Animations consist of two parts: 1) a style describing the CSS animation and 2) a set of keyframes that mark the start and end states of the animation’s style. With some creativity, many animations can be done entirely in CSS... without JavaScript!

Some advantages of using CSS animations rather than JavaScript include the following:

  • Simple to use and require no JavaScript knowledge.
  • Much better performance, even under moderate system load.
  • Allowing the browser to control the animation lets it optimize performance. For example, minimizing update frequency or pausing the animations running in tabs that aren't open.

@keyframes

The @keyframes the rule is like a timeline in CSS. It allows you to specify the style at a specific moment in time.

  • If your animation runs smoothly from the start to the end, you can use the from and to values.
  • If your animation varies from start to finish, like a bounce effect, use a percentage value (this is the value type our generator uses).
