Background color Animation
- We have written the general structure of HTML.
In the body, we have <h1> tag with some text inside the <section>. - To create animate bg-color, you need to select the tag for which you want to create animate bg-color.
- Then we set any gradient color with degree using “background” or “background-color” property as in the above code. Ex : background: linear-gradient(-45deg, #EE7752, #E73C7E, #23A6D5, #2305AB)
- Then add animation property and you should give 4 value like “name”, “duration”, “timing-function”, and “iteration-count”. For ex: animation: change 10s ease-in-out infinite; Here, “change” is animation name, “10s” is duration, “ease-in-out” is a function and “infinite” is iteration-count. You can give your desired values.
- And finally, we create keyframes for animating the background color. We set 0% keyframe to background-position: 0 50%, 50% keyframe to background-position: 100% 50%, and 100% keyframe to background-position: 0 50%.
- See the above live preview, the linear gradient background-color is animated infinitely.
