Slow down, tiger! That seems to be the motto in these past weeks in motion design and it’s certainly a good one. Away from too much noise, animations express a kind of tranquility these days that bring some Zen into busy layouts.

But let’s not shy away from some fun (gooey) playfulness, which is most fitting for mobile interactions.

And as always, don’t be afraid to be a rule-breaker when it comes to motion trends!

We really hope you enjoy this new collection and find it inspiring!

It has been a long time since we explored some button styles here on Codrops! But after seeing a really nice one on Cuberto, I wanted to explore some ideas and share them with you.

The main idea of these buttons is that they are magnetic and follow the mouse pointer. Along with that, there’s lots of room to play with some interesting hover animations. A very nice thing to explore is the motion of an additional element like a shadow or another line. The parallax effect created by moving the button’s elements differently, gives a nice twist to the animation.

Here we play with a border animation.

This circular button fills with a solid color.

A shadow element creates some depth.

I really hope you like them! Can’t wait to see your ideas Share them with us @codrops or @crnacura.

The post Collective #618 appeared first on Codrops.

Original Source: https://www.sitepoint.com/svg-101-what-is-svg/?utm_source=rss

Though it was conceived back in the late 1990s, SVG is in many ways the “ugly duckling” file format that grew up to become a swan. Poorly supported and largely ignored for most of the 2000s, since around 2017 all modern web browsers have been rendering SVG without serious issues, and most vector drawing programs have been offering the option to export SVG, which has unquestionably become a widely used graphic format on the Web.

This hasn’t happened by chance. Although traditional raster graphic file formats like JPGs and PNGs are perfect for photographs or very complex images, it turns out that SVG is the one graphic format that most closely meets current web development demands of scalability, responsiveness, interactivity, programmability, performance, and accessibility.

So, What Is SVG and Why Should You Use It?

SVG is an eXtensible Markup Language (XML)-based vector graphic format for the Web and other environments. XML uses tags like HTML, although it’s stricter. You cannot, for example, omit a closing tag since this will make the file invalid and the SVG will not be rendered.

To give you a taste of what SVG code looks like, here’s how you would draw a white circle with a black border:

<circle cx=”100″ cy=”100″ r=”50″ stroke-width=”4″ stroke=”#000″ fill=”#fff” />

As you can see, under the hood, SVG documents are nothing more than simple plain text files that describe lines, curves, shapes, colors, and text. As it’s human-readable, easily understandable and modifiable, when embedded in an HTML document as an inline SVG, SVG code can be manipulated via CSS or JavaScript. This gives SVG a flexibility and versatility that can’t ever be matched by traditional PNG, GIF or JPG graphic formats.

SVG is a W3C standard, which means that it can inter-operate easily with other open standard languages and technologies including JavaScript, DOM, CSS, and HTML. As long as the W3C sets the global industry standards, it’s likely that SVG will continue to be the de facto standard for vector graphics in the browser.

The awesomeness of SVG is that it can solve many of the most vexing problems in modern web development. Let’s breeze through some of them.

Scalability and responsiveness

Under the hood, SVG uses shapes, numbers and coordinates rather than a pixel grid to render graphics in the browser, which makes it resolution-independent and infinitely scalable. If you think about it, the instructions for creating a circle are the same whether you’re using a pen or a skywriting plane. Only the scale changes.

With SVG, you can combine different shapes, paths and text elements to create all kinds of visuals, and you’ll be sure they’ll look clear and crisp at any size.

In contrast, raster-based formats like GIF, JPG, and PNG have fixed dimensions, which cause them to pixelate when they’re scaled. Although various responsive image techniques have proved valuable for pixel graphics, they’ll never be able to truly compete with SVG’s ability to scale indefinitely.

Programmability and interactivity

SVG is fully editable and scriptable. All kinds of animations and interactions can be added to an inline SVG graphic via CSS and/or JavaScript.

Accessibility

SVG files are text-based, so when embedded in a web page, they can be searched and indexed. This makes them accessible to screen readers, search engines and other devices.

Performance

One of the most important aspects impacting web performance is the size of the files used on a web page. SVG graphics are usually smaller in size compared to bitmap file formats.
