Magic

Magic is a collection of CSS3 effects that are pretty alluring. Daniel Eden's work has been the inspiration for this project that was based on Animate.css. With magic, the developers can use jQuery or any JavaScript (from the front-end web development framework) to execute the transition or animation in CSS. This task can be done by selecting the HTML object and then setting the event listeners on to it, followed by adding or removing magic CSS animation modules post the event.
