Countdown to Love (GSAP Morphing)
Dynamic grid animation with GSAP timeline sequencing - pixel-perfect numeric countdown transitions and shape morphing with optimized performance.
Pixel Fire Animation
This demo showcases a procedural pixel art flame created with the HTML5 Canvas API. The effect is achieved by rapidly drawing randomized vertical lines on a low-resolution 16x16 canvas, which is then scaled up using CSS image-rendering to maintain a crisp, retro aesthetic.
Pixelated Lazy Load for Images
Pure JavaScript and CSS demonstrate how to replace a heavily pixelated placeholder with a full-size image using the data-src attribute and switching the image-rendering styles.
GSAP ScrollTrigger Disintegration Effect
This isn’t just a simple scroll effect—it’s an artistic display of a custom-built disintegration animation. It leverages GSAP’s ScrollTrigger to control the precise, chaotic fade-out of an image rendered from the DOM.
