Nebula CSS - A Galactic Office Scene Crafted Purely with CSS โœจ

Frontend Challenge CSS Art Submission

๐ŸŒ  Nebula CSS: Galactic Resources Dashboard

This is a submission for the Frontend Challenge: Office Edition, sponsored by Axero โ€” under the category CSS Art: Office Culture.


๐ŸŒŒ Inspiration

What if your office dashboard lived in a galaxy far, far away?

For this challenge, I envisioned a futuristic "Resources Dashboard" โ€” a CSS-only, intranet-style interface glowing with galactic flair. Inspired by my talented twin sister @VIDAKHOSHPEY22 and her animated Nebula Works Admin Panel, I set out to build the counterpart: a static yet visually rich resource hub, crafted using only HTML and CSS, no JavaScript at all.

๐ŸŽจ Highlights

โœ… 100% HTML + CSS, zero JavaScript

๐Ÿงฉ Modular CSS with comments for easy navigation

๐Ÿช Responsive layout using Flexbox & CSS Grid

๐ŸŒ  Hover animations and glowing buttons with pure transitions

๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿš€ Office-in-space UI design language โ€” minimalist yet immersive

โœ๏ธ Carefully selected fonts and spacing for clean readability


๐Ÿš€ What I Learned

This wasnโ€™t just a design โ€” it was a deliberate exercise in restraint. My main goal was to push the limits of CSS, and hereโ€™s what I took away:

How to use shadows, gradients, and layering to build a sense of depth

Leveraged CSS-only transitions to simulate interactivity

Learned how to build a dashboard layout with no JS or external libraries

Explored color and animation to communicate function and mood

Collaborated with my twin, whose dashboard inspired me throughout โค๏ธ
