Pendulum Wave: CSS Keyframe Animation

Pendulum Wave

Twelve pendulums seen from above, their periods fitting 18 to 29 swings into one 24 second cycle. Each swings on a sine, and together they drift through waves, snakes and chaos, then line up again.

Also known as: pendulum wave animation, pendulum snake css, harmonic pendulum loop, physics wave animation.

Customizing this snippet

Color: set --kfa-color on the element or a parent. Currently previewing #3b82f6.
Base size: set --kfa-size. Every other dimension is in em, so the whole thing scales together. Currently previewing 16px.
Speed: change the duration on the transition or animation shorthand. 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.
