Weekend in Lisbon
Three days of tiles, tarts and trams.
3D Carousel Ring Hover
Six picture cards stand in a ring seen slightly from above. Hover and the ring spreads out and spins; leave and it stops where it is, because hover only toggles animation-play-state.
Also known as: css 3d carousel, rotating gallery ring, spinning cards hover.

}Customizing this snippet
- Color: set
--hfx-coloron the element or a parent. Currently previewing#3b82f6. - Base size: set
--hfx-size. Every other dimension is inem, so the whole thing scales together. Currently previewing16px. - Speed: change the duration on the
transitionoranimationshorthand. Staggered delays are relative, so they keep their rhythm. - Reduced motion: the rule at the end of the CSS turns the motion off for people who asked their OS for less of it. Keep it.
