Stunning visuals with Maths and...no JavaScript?
summary
Recreates mathy visuals using only HTML and CSS (with Sass for generation), claiming no JavaScript is involved and showing when CSS wins and when it gets ugly or laggy. Builds a donut-like torus of dots using chained transforms to place 80 circles and layered rotations, produces a sinusoidal bar wave via stacked linear-gradients and keyframe loops, generates the spinning Tail Spin disc with 40 discs from radial gradients, and assembles/morphs exploding polyhedra (12‑ and 20‑face variants) — all demonstrably working though some radial gradients perform poorly.
