I’m a big fan of View Transitions. Part of what they can do, animating elements across fresh page loads, is a uniquely powerful ability. The performance story, though, is a bit complicated. You might think because you don’t have to reach for a JavaScript framework with Single Page App abilities to do this, it could […]
Google has this little widget called Baseline. Here’s a screenshot example: The idea is for it to accompany a web platform feature so you can have a sense of what browsers support it. Web developers are rightfully skeptical of new web tech, wanting to know when they can actually use a feature, so this is […]
If you want to use multi-page view transitions, this used to be a prerequisite: That’s dead. Now you do this: Thanks to Bramus for the PSA and update article.

Luckily it’s is pretty clean to work with, both with the Astro framework, and out of the box! View Transition Options Transitioning UI between states has been something that developers have been […]

View Transitions are naturally great at tweening one state of a DOM element to the next, but you’ll see likely-unwanted ghosting if the element changes shape from one state to the next. You can either prevent it from changing shape by changing either […]

While I was over on Codrops reading Adam’s article about Scroll-Driven animation, I also read Noam Rosenthal’s article about View Transitions. Noam is also at Google and working on the View Transitions API, so knows it pretty intimately, and found enough gaps that a library around it was warranted. That’s what Velvette is: a library […]
