# The Talk

The talk I gave is a full-length talk of a little over 30 minutes.

Tired of disjointed web apps? View Transitions are the game-changer you’ve been waiting for. Whether your app is single or multi-page, this powerful API lets you create seamless, native-like experiences that captivate users. Join me as I dive into the world of View Transitions, showing you how to replace jarring page loads with elegant transitions. Learn to harness the flexibility of CSS and the power of JavaScript to customize transitions and create a truly unique experience. If you’re ready to take your web apps to the next level, this talk is a must-attend.

# Recording/Video

You can watch the recording of this talk on SlidesLive, or right here in the embed. You need to unlock the recording by entering an email address – any email address – before you can watch it.


The slides were captured individually (yay!) but unfortunately the transitions in between the slides were not recorded. A pity, as I often use animations – such as keyboard typing one – in my decks to make sure you are focused onto the right part of the slides.
