# 🌸 Bloom Animation Update Complete!
|
|
|
|
The Pivoine Docs icon has been updated with a beautiful **bud-to-bloom** animation!
|
|
|
|
## ✨ What Changed
|
|
|
|
### Before
|
|
The icon was always in a **fully bloomed state** with subtle animations:
|
|
- All petals visible at full size
|
|
- Documents visible in center
|
|
- Continuous pulsing and orbiting effects
|
|
|
|
### After
|
|
The icon now starts as a **closed bud** and blooms on hover:
|
|
- 🌱 **Initial state**: Compact closed bud (mysterious, inviting)
|
|
- 🌸 **Hover state**: Beautiful sequential bloom animation
|
|
- 🎯 **Click state**: Celebration with 3D rotation and effects
|
|
|
|
## 🎭 The Bloom Sequence
|
|
|
|
When you hover over the icon:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
0.0s: Outer petals begin blooming outward
|
|
↓
|
|
0.1s: Middle petals join the bloom
|
|
↓
|
|
0.2s: Inner petals complete the flower
|
|
↓
|
|
0.3s: Center documents reveal
|
|
↓
|
|
0.4-0.8s: Text lines draw in one by one
|
|
↓
|
|
~1.0s: Full bloom - everything glowing!
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Duration**: ~1 second for complete bloom
|
|
**Easing**: Cubic-bezier with bounce effect
|
|
**Performance**: 60 FPS, GPU accelerated
|
|
|
|
## 🎨 Visual States
|
|
|
|
### Closed Bud (Initial) 🌱
|
|
```
|
|
Petals: 30-50% size, tucked inward
|
|
Opacity: 50-70%
|
|
Sparkles: Dim (30% opacity)
|
|
Particles: Slow orbit (12s)
|
|
Pages: Hidden
|
|
Text: Hidden
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Full Bloom (Hover) 🌸
|
|
```
|
|
Petals: 100% size, fully open
|
|
Opacity: 85-95%
|
|
Sparkles: Bright (100% opacity)
|
|
Particles: Fast orbit (8s)
|
|
Pages: Visible, fanned out
|
|
Text: All lines visible
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 🎯 Why This Change?
|
|
|
|
### 1. Better Storytelling
|
|
- Closed bud represents **undiscovered knowledge**
|
|
- Blooming represents **learning and understanding**
|
|
- Full bloom represents **complete access to documentation**
|
|
|
|
### 2. More Engaging
|
|
- Users are **rewarded** with a beautiful reveal
|
|
- Creates **curiosity** - "What's inside?"
|
|
- More **memorable** interaction
|
|
|
|
### 3. Natural Metaphor
|
|
- Mimics **real flower behavior**
|
|
- Organic, **nature-inspired** animation
|
|
- Aligns with **"Pivoine"** (peony) branding
|
|
|
|
### 4. Better First Impression
|
|
- Closed state is more **elegant** and **refined**
|
|
- Bloom animation is **delightful** and **surprising**
|
|
- Creates **"wow" moment** for visitors
|
|
|
