Overview of this book

CSS3 unveils new possibilities for frontend web developers: things that would require JavaScript, such as animation and form validation, or even third party plugins, such as 3D transformations, are now accessible using this technology."Designing Next Generation Web Projects with CSS3" contains ten web projects fully developed using cutting edge CSS3 techniques. It also covers time saving implementation tips and tricks as well as fallback, polyfills, and graceful degradation approaches.This book draws a path through CSS3; it starts with projects using well supported features across web browsers and then it moves to more sophisticated techniques such as multi polyfill implementation and creating a zooming user interface with SVG and CSS. React to HTML5 form validation, target CSS rules to specific devices, trigger animations and behavior in response to user interaction, gain confidence with helpful tools like SASS, learn how to deal with old browsers and more."Designing Next Generation Web Projects with CSS3" is a helpful collection of techniques and good practices designed to help the implementation of CSS3 properties and features.

Implementing slide transition


A slide effect is basically a transition where one element moves outside the user's view, sliding in one direction while another moves in. To implement this effect, we have to work on two different animations: slide in and slide out. The basic idea to make this effect work is similar to the previous one, although slightly more complicated. To achieve the slide-in effect, we have to move all the pictures outside the section viewport, say left:-500px and then, when the corresponding bullet is clicked, take the selected picture and move it to the opposite side (left:500px) using an animation that then moves it to the correct position (left:0).

To achieve the slide-out effect, we can then use another animation that starts from left:0px to left:-500px. The following is the complete CSS snippet:

/* == [BEGIN] Slide In == */

#slidein:checked ~ section > ul{
  overflow:hidden;
}

#slidein:checked ~ section figure{
  left: -500px;
  animation-name: slideout;
  animation...
