CSS Grid Layouts
.product-grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill, minmax(300px, 1fr));
gap: var(--spacing-xl);
padding: var(--spacing-xl);
}
@media (min-width: 768px) {
.product-grid {
grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill, minmax(250px, 1fr));
}
}
.collection-layout {
display: grid;
grid-template-areas:
"header header"
"sidebar content"
"footer footer";
grid-template-columns: 250px 1fr;
grid-template-rows: auto 1fr auto;
min-height: 100vh;
gap: var(--spacing-xl);
}
.collection-header { grid-area: header; }
.collection-sidebar { grid-area: sidebar; }
.collection-content { grid-area: content; }
.collection-footer { grid-area: footer; }
(: ) {
{

}
.sidebar {
display: flex;

.sidebar > :last-child {
flex-grow: 1;
}
Responsive Design
.hero {
padding: var(--spacing-lg);
font-size: var(--font-size-base);
}
@media (min-width: 768px) {
.hero {
padding: var(--spacing-xl);
font-size: var(--font-size-lg);
}
}
@media (min-width: 1024px) {
.hero {
padding: var(--spacing-2xl);
font-size: var(--font-size-xl);
}
}
@media (min-width: 1440px) {
.hero {
max-width: 1400px;
margin: 0 auto;
font-size: var(--font-size-2xl);
}
}
.card-container {
container-type: inline-size;
container-name: card;
}
@container card (min-width: 400px) {
.card {

flex-direction: row;
}
}
CSS Animations
.product-card {
transition: transform var(--transition-base);
}
.product-card:hover {
transform: translateY(-8px);
}
@keyframes fadeIn {
from {
opacity: 0;
transform: translateY(20px);
}
to {
opacity: 1;
transform: translateY(0);
}
}
.fade-in {
animation: fadeIn var(--transition-slow) ease-out;
}
@keyframes shimmer {
0% {
background-position: -1000px 0;
}
100% {
background-position: 1000px 0;
}
}
.skeleton {
background: linear-gradient(
90deg,
#f0f0f0 25%,
#e0e0e0 50%,
#f0f0f0 75%
);
background-size: 2000px 100%;
animation: shimmer 2s linear infinite;
}
{

@media (min-width: 768px) {
html {
font-size: 18px;
}
}
@media (min-width: 1024px) {
html {
font-size: 20px;
}
}
h1 {
font-size: clamp(2rem, 5vw + 1rem, 4rem);
font-family: var(--font-heading);
font-weight: 700;
line-height: 1.2;
letter-spacing: -0.02em;
