Theory
Tasks and challenges required for taking the course.
3 chapters,
89 tasks, 3 challenges
We will rotate, skew, move, reduce, and enlarge objects as well as blow them up with fireballs, teleport them, and use telekinesis. And, of course, we will take a look at some cool techniques for using transforms to create decorative effects.
Start
Let's learn how to smoothly change CSS properties. We will create beautiful and functional shape elements that are inspired by Material Design and create a mini-quiz about HTML and CSS.
Start
Let’s take a look at the ABC of creating animations with CSS. We will walk the evolution path of a civilization and conquer deep space. We will move, rotate and transform objects while learning the basics of object animation in CSS.
Start
Final challenges will be available soon!
