Unreveal Effects for Content Previews

Some explorations of page transitions using covering elements and CSS clip-paths.

Some time ago, we explored a cover page transition that would hide some initial content and show another level of content, i.e. “unreveal” it. Today I’d love to share some more ideas for showing another page or preview, including one that uses CSS clip-path to achieve the effect.

Thanks for checking by!
