Demonstrates concrete recipes: use multiply/screen blend modes to make cut‑out text on black or white, embed SVG data URI (no base64) to turn glyphs and emojis into animated images and styled meters, animate marching‑ants with stroke‑dasharray/offset, fake rich borders with SVG stroke gradients, treat pseudo‑elements and text nodes as flex/grid children, enable keyboard menus with focus‑within, build conic‑gradient pie charts driven by CSS variables (animation needs CSS.registerProperty/Houdini), and auto‑tune variable fonts + regression from font‑size to weight.
