P2.7: Transitions & Keyframes

Animations add premium feedback to user interactions, making interfaces feel active and responsive.

1. Transitions vs. Keyframes

• Transitions: Interpolate properties smoothly when a state changes (e.g. :hover).
• Keyframes: Run complex looping animations without user interaction.

/* Smooth Hover Transition */
.btn {
  background-color: blue;
  transition: background-color 0.3s ease;
}
.btn:hover {
  background-color: green;
}

“Micro-animations should be subtle and fast (typically 200ms to 400ms). Always animate transform and opacity properties. Sizing changes cause expensive layout reflows!”
