for those of you using something like their technique of opacity animating a clip-path region from one look to another upon ~click ... if you wish to be visually kind to safari users you can eliminate the default gray selection indication flash animation safari does upon a tap activation with just a tiny bit of webkit-only css , for example ... #links { -webkit-tap-highlight-color : transparent ; } added to the css of their codepen fixes it (without causing any issues for other/std browsers afaik)
