Disney’s 12 Basic Principles Of Animation – Done in CSS
summary
Recreates Disney’s 12 principles purely with CSS keyframes, transforms, gradients and filters, no JavaScript, showing working demos: a jumping cube that uses slow in slow out timing, keyframe stops for squash and stretch, matching shadow scale and opacity, staging via gradients and blurred floor shadow, follow‑through/overlap with offset keyframes, anticipation through active state scaling (snow button) and a working Pixar‑lamp demo. All effects are implemented in CSS and visibly work in the live examples.
