The World of CSS Transforms
What did people do before CSS transforms?<p>I've been making an app with React Native and react-native-svg and even though react-native-svg supports transformations, I've had to do a lot of transforms with trigonometry (i.e. rotating a shape around a center point, then getting the new bounding box, which requires things such as Math.atan2).<p>It's made me really appreciate 1. how much easier front end web development is and 2. how far we've gotten. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate web methods like getBoundingClientRect() or element.closest(), and how easy it is to make animations with CSS and move things around with transforms.
