Bringing back Internet Explorer’s Page Transitions thanks to the View Transition API
Back in 1997, Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 introduced Interpage Transitions—letting webmasters add dramatic PowerPoint-style transitions between pages with a single <meta> tag.
Whether you wanted a dramatic circle iris or a classic vertical wipe, every link click became a miniature theatrical event across the Information Superhighway.
With the modern View Transition API and Selective View Transitions with Active Types, we can recreate all 23 classic RevealTrans effects purely in CSS.
Unlike Internet Explorer—where setting both an exit and an entry effect caused a conflict—this library smoothly chains your exit and entry transitions one after the other.
Fine-tune effects like Blinds, Checkerboard, Random Dissolve, and Random Bars using CSS Custom Properties such as --page-transitions-blinds-bands and --page-transitions-checkerboard-columns.
