What are CSS Animations?

 CSS Animations is a module of CSS that lets you animate CSS properties over time, using keyframes. A keyframe animation's behavior can be modified through its timing function, duration, number of repetitions, and other features.

With Animate.css, you can produce cross-browser animations for your web projects. Ideal for highlighting home pages, sliders, and attention-guiding hints.

CSS Animations are simple, yet powerful animations for web pages. In this post, we explain the concept behind CSS Animation, what they are and how to use them to enhance your website.

CSS Animations are added to your web pages using CSS. They are particularly useful for adding a bit of extra visual interest to your website, and can be used to animate objects, text, or entire sections of your website. 

Various properties you can use in CSS Animations:

The properties you can use to animate CSS are background-color, border-color, border-style, border-width, color, font-size, font-weight, line-height, margin-top, margin-bottom, margin-left, margin-right, padding-top, padding-bottom, padding-left, padding-right, width, and height.

What are various components of CSS Animations: -

• Timing Functions: You can use one of three timing functions to control the speed at which your animation will play out: ease-in, ease-out, or linear.

• Duration: You can specify how long the animation will take to complete, in milliseconds.

• Repetitions: You can set the number of times the animation will play.

• Delay: You can specify the amount of time between each repetition of the animation.

• Animation: You can add a transition to your keyframes, which will make the animation more fluid.

• Animation Name: You can add a name to your animation, so you can easily identify it later.

• Keyframes: You can create multiple keyframes for your animation, so you can control the animation over a range of values.

• Animation Property: You can animate one property at a time, or you can animate multiple properties simultaneously.

In conclusion, CSS animations are a powerful way to add some visual interest to your website. You can use them to add a bit of animation to a page, such as to a background image. CSS animations can be added to any HTML element. You can also create CSS animations that are triggered by the user’s mouse movements or clicks. You can also create CSS animations that animate the values of CSS properties over time, using keyframes.
