CSS Transitions

CSS Transitions: A Simple Way To Delight Your Visitors

We all want our designs to be functional and usable. We want visitors to easily complete tasks and find what they want. We’d also like to delight them and make their experience enjoyable and memorable. CSS3 transitions are an easy way to begin creating that delightful experience.

 

In this tutorial the author builds a demo of a navigation bar with and without transitions applied. Mouse over the menu items to see the difference transitions can make.

You need to use vendor prefixes for now, but browser support is good everywhere outside of IE and support is coming to IE. Since transitions will be non-critical to your design you can safely use them now even if IE users won’t see them yet.
