Smooth Operators
CSS transitions interpolate between UI states so changes feel intentional. Learn the four transition properties, why to avoid 'all', when transitions beat keyframes, and how to keep hover effects off touch devices.
All the topics I've covered. I write about React, Next.js, TypeScript, databases, AI/ML, cloud deployment, performance optimization, and system design.

Not every interaction needs motion. Learn how frequency, duration, and context determine whether animation helps or hurts your interface. The difference between delight and frustration.
Move beyond duration-based animations. Learn how spring physics creates motion that responds, adapts, and feels genuinely natural. The secret behind iOS's fluid interactions.
Master easing curves to make your animations feel natural. Learn why linear is almost always wrong, how cubic-bezier works, and which easing to use for different interactions.
