CSS3 in 10 days — Day 9

Welcome to Day 9 of learning CSS.

As i have told earlier, this series is inspired by this awesome youtube series in freecodecamp channel.

We will start with 3D Layering Effect on day-9. Open your code editor and create a new 9.1-3DLayer folder and two files index.html and sandbox.css inside it.

Next, in index.html put the basic html.

Now, it’s time for the 3D effect. We are basically using translate and rotate to rotate each svg image, but the key here is to use perspective as it gives 3D effect.
