Installation
Let’s get set up! You can install the magic.css library through various package managers.
- GitHub Package Registry: Package URL
bash npm install @minimac/magic.css
- NPM: Package URL
bash npm i magic.css
- YARN: Package URL
bash yarn add magic.css
Getting Started
To begin using magic.css, simply include the CSS file in your HTML:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="yourpath/magic.css">
or the minified version:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="yourpath/magic.min.css">
Usage with JavaScript
Let’s add some magic using JavaScript!
First, include the class magictime and the desired animation class:
const selector = document.querySelector('.yourdiv');
selector.classList.add('magictime', 'puffIn');
Want to delay the magic? Set a timer!
function myFunction() {
const selector = document.querySelector('.yourdiv');
selector.classList.add('magictime', 'puffIn');
}
setTimeout(myFunction, 5000);
You can even create an infinite loop with delays:
setInterval(myFunction, 3000);
Usage with jQuery
Prefer jQuery? No problem! Here’s how you can achieve the same effects:
$('.yourdiv').hover(function () {
$(this).addClass('magictime puffIn');
});
Like with JavaScript, you can delay the effects:
setTimeout(function() {
$('.yourdiv').addClass('magictime puffIn');
}, 5000);
And for an infinite loop:
setInterval(function() {
$('.yourdiv').toggleClass('magictime puffIn');
}, 3000);
HTML & CSS Tips
You can customize the animation duration by adjusting the magictime class:
.magictime {
-webkit-animation-duration: 3s;
animation-duration: 3s;
}
Remember, the default timing is 1 second! Want to set a specific duration for a particular animation? Use two classes:
.magictime.magic {
-webkit-animation-duration: 10s;
animation-duration: 10s;
}
🎊 Gulp and SCSS (SASS) Compiling
If you wish to customize your CSS, you can edit the SCSS files. Here’s how:
Go to the file magic.scss, comment or uncomment your desired animations, and run the commands:
bash
npm install
gulp
This will automatically generate new files for you!
✅ Browser Support
Ensure your animations work across major browsers:
Browser | Version |
---|---|
Chrome | 31+ |
Firefox | 31+ |
Safari | 7+ |
iOS Safari | 7.1+ |
Opera | 27+ |
Android | 4.1+ |
Android Chrome | 42+ |
IE | 10+ |

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues while implementing CSS3 animations, here are some troubleshooting tips:
- Ensure your paths to CSS and JS files are correct.
- Confirm that your browser supports the CSS animations you’re using.
- Make sure there are no conflicting CSS styles affecting your elements.
- Consider testing your code in different browsers to isolate the problem.
