Use the border radius effectively and create awesome shapes🤩

A Quick Thread🧵👇

You might have used something like this before👇

border-radius: 10px;
border-radius: 50%;
border-radius: 20px 10px;
border-radius: 10px 20px 30px 40px;

but have you used this?👇

border-radius: 40% 22% 33% 45% / 45% 69% 65% 36%;

Attached image showing a rectangle with 10px border-radius all sides. This is what we probably all know.

border-radius: 20px;

In this thread I'll try to explain you the key points behind border-radius. Let's start

Consider border-radius as 8 clips(see the attached image)

We can shift the position of eight clips and make some amazing random shapes.

The syntax is pretty easy, we can consider it as border-radius accepts 8 value for each clip, four value before slash (/) and four values after slash

Let's decode what each value means.

border-radius: 2px 4px 6px 8px / 10px 12px 20px 16px;

The first 2px simply means the distance of first clip from the top left corner and second value that is 4px means the distance of second clip from top right corner (See attached image)

When we write simple border-radius: 10px, it means all clips and equal distance from their initial points.

border-radius: 50% 50% 50% 50% / 50% 50% 50% 50%; is same as border-radius: 50%

I hope you get a quick overview of the border-radius and now you will be able to make some random shapes using only border-radius.

That's pretty much it for this thread. Drop your thoughts below❤️
