What I learned

This project was so much fun! 🎉 I learned a lot about GSAP animations and how to make them interactive and responsive. Here are some cool snippets:

gsap.to(".disp-img", {
  scrollTrigger: {
    trigger: ".disp-img",
    scrub: 0.1,
    start: "top 240px",
  },
  yPercent: 33,
  scale: 1.1,
});

I also got better at using Intersection Observer API for lazy loading sections and adding animations. Check this out:

const reveal = (entries, observer) => {
  const [entry] = entries;
  if (!entry.isIntersecting) return;
  entry.target.classList.remove("section--hidden");
  observer.unobserve(entry.target);
};
const revealSectionObserver = new IntersectionObserver(reveal, {
  threshold: 0,
});
allRevealSection.forEach((sect) => revealSectionObserver.observe(sect));

I also implemented cool scroll-triggered animations like text trick using the Intersection Observer API and many more. 🌟

Continued Development

Moving forward, I want to focus on:

• Enhancing my animation skills using GSAP 🎥
• Improving my understanding of responsive design principles for - better layouts on all devices 📐
• Digging deeper into accessibility to make my websites more user-friendly ♿
• I am also yet to implement the animated carousel i wish to implement
