Description
Refresh Portland presents... Creative CSS: Animations, Transitions & UX Workshop!
Start thinking of CSS in a whole new light using animations, transitions, and transforms. Plus, learn how to make great UI animations while you’re at it!
In this workshop we’ll cover the basics of CSS animations, transitions and transforms; techniques for writing them efficiently; combining them with JavaScript and SVG; and specifically look at where motion can be used effectively in our work -- both as classy details and as useful UI animations. It’s going to be a fun day full of web animation!
What We'll Cover
- Timing, offsets, arcs, and other key animation principles for UI work
- Where and how animation can improve UX
- Capturing CSS animation events with JavaScript
- Animating SVG with CSS
- Performance considerations and progressive enhancement
Who Should Attend
This workshop is for web designers and developers who want to add more sophisticated interactions and motion to their work.
