Introducing "Unleash the power of Scroll-Driven Animations"

Bramus

We are proud to announce the release of "Unleash the Power of Scroll-Driven Animations", a 10-part video course to learn all about scroll-driven animations using CSS or JavaScript.

You can watch the series on YouTube. The first episode is embedded here.

Scroll-driven animations?

With scroll-driven animations you can take an existing CSS or WAAPI animation and animate it on scroll. Because of that, scroll-driven animations inherit all of the benefits these APIs bring. This includes hardware accelerated scroll-driven animations that are not subject to jank when the main thread gets blocked.

Scroll-driven animations are available in Chrome from Chrome 115 and are the perfect candidate for progressive enhancement.
