Technical Implementation
This 3D effect uses CSS 3D transform technology, setting the viewing angle with perspective
property and creating stereoscopic space using transform3d
, rotateX
, rotateY
and other properties. Core technologies include:
- 3D Space Construction:
transform-style: preserve-3d
maintains child elements' 3D transformations - Viewpoint Control:
perspective
property defines distance between observer and z=0 plane - Spatial Transformation: Combining
translateZ
,rotateX/Y/Z
for complex 3D motion - Performance Optimization: Utilizing GPU hardware acceleration for 3D calculations
Reuse steps
- 1Set up 3D container: Define perspective and transform-style properties
- 2Create 3D elements: Add 3D transform properties to child elements
- 3Calculate spatial coordinates: Determine each element's position in 3D space
- 4Add animation effects: Use keyframes to define 3D motion trajectories
- 5Optimize rendering performance: Enable hardware acceleration and proper transform order
Performance notes
3D transforms consume significant GPU resources, recommend simplifying effects on mobile devices; use will-change property for browser optimization hints; avoid frequent 3D transform calculations
