I got to the last one and I didn't find it jarring.
I find meaningless animations a waste of time ==> i.e. anything but a spinner to indicate "currently busy" I get frustrated at because it's forcing me to wait before getting to the next step.
- nowprovision 11y agoAnimations look tidy and I'm sure you learnt a bulk of CSS3 in the process and hopefully had fun, but Im not going to include 558 lines (517 sloc) 26.9 KB to get animations for hamburgers that change to X. Infact it's not even the size it's the added dependency and risk of such dependency (as browsers evolve) that concerns me. I also didn't find the last one jarring, why would it take more than a blink to slide out side menu (or vice versa) on an SPA unless doing some ajax loading for side menu content (can't see why this can't be avoided though)?
