Frequently Asked Questions
Why is transform: scaleX() better than animating width?
Animating scaleX executes on the GPU compositor layer, ensuring 60fps/120fps smooth animations with zero layout recalculation.
How does the expand-from-center animation work?
By setting transform-origin: center on the ::after pseudo-element, scaleX(1) expands symmetrically outward from the center.
