Nothing beats smooth user experience. That is the reason we love WebGL, because we can do crazy effects with amazing performance.

Description
In this course I will focus on two main concepts. Firstly, we are going to learn how to do simple smooth page transitions with GSAP and Barba.js libraries. After that we will move to more advanced effects using FLIP concept for animations.
Secondly, I will teach you how you can create image-to-fullscreen animations on the website.
That amazing zooming combined with WebGL shader effects that you often see on the coolest websites. I will explain the concept, and we will use it to create a couple of different effects. Don’t worry if you are not yet familiar with shaders, a short practical intro to them will be included in the course. So you can use it as your first step in learning them.
Then we will combine smooth page transition with cool WebGL effects. I will also include some tips on performance and where you can go from that. In the end we will have a simple but cool portfolio website with shader animations and smooth page transitions.
You will learn
- A quick overview of shaders
- Create smooth animated transitions with GSAP and Barba.js
- Create create image-to-fullscreen animations using three.js
- Create a portfolio implementing WebGL transitions
The course includes
- 3 hours and 30 mins of practical and condensed knowledge
- Immediate access to the entire collection of videos
