Accessibility

  • Decorative: rendered with aria-hidden and pointer-events: none, so it never takes focus or clicks.
  • Pure CSS. Every layer animates transform or opacity with literal keyframes, so the compositor runs it without repaints or JavaScript.
  • Under prefers-reduced-motion the curtains hold still in their resting arrangement.
