Endigest AI Core Summary
This article explores creative combinations of CSS scroll-driven animations with the new corner-shape property, currently available in Chrome 139+.
•scroll-driven animations tie an animation timeline to a scroll position using animation-timeline: scroll(), requiring no explicit duration
•corner-shape accepts keywords (square, squircle, round, bevel, scoop, notch) or the superellipse() function with numeric values, all of which are mathematically animatable
•A body::before pseudo-element with mix-blend-mode: difference and background: white inverts underlying content as the shape animates; isolation: isolate can exclude specific elements from the effect
•Using inset: -1rem instead of inset: 0 stretches the shape beyond the viewport, softening the start and end of the animation
•
The article also demonstrates scroll snapping integration, using corner-shape as a mask to reveal borders, and animating multiple nested bevel-shaped diamond elements simultaneously
