Motion Techniques

Move

transform: translateX(10px);

Resize

transform: scale(0.5);

Rotate

transform: rotate(1turn);

Fade

opacity: 0;

Move

<div class="circle base elastic"></div>

.base {
  animation: move 2s infinite;
}
.elastic { 
  animation-timing-function: 
    cubic-bezier(.8,-0.6,0.2,1.5);
}

@keyframes move {
  0% { 
    transform: translateX(-250px);
  }
  40%, 60% { 
    transform: translateX(50px);
  }
  100% { 
    transform: translateX(250px);
  }
}

Rotate

<div class="square base linear"></div>

.base {
  animation: spin 2s infinite;
}
.linear {
  animation-timing-function: linear;
}

@keyframes spin {
  to { 
    transform: rotate(1turn);
  }
}

Resize

<div class="circle base"></div>

.base {
  animation: size 2s infinite;
}

@keyframes size {
  0%, 40%, 100% {
    transform: scale(1);
  }
  25%, 60% {
    transform: scale(1.1);
  }
}

Vue Animations
