34 Pointshow to pause between a looping css animation?
Hi everyone,
Anybody know how to pause between a looping css animation?
@for $i from 1 through 50 { #unicorn .shard:nth-child(#{$i})::before { $ad: ($i*0.05s+0.02s); -webkit-animation: shimmer 0.8s $ad linear infinite; -moz-animation: shimmer 0.8s $ad linear infinite; animation: shimmer 0.8s $ad linear infinite; } }
@-webkit-keyframes shimmer {
0% {
background: rgba(255,255,255,0);
}
35% {
background: rgba(255,255,255,.2);
}
100% {
background: rgba(255,255,255,0);
}
}
I'm able to call the "shimmer" css animation and play it infinitely but I am trying to put a pause between the loops. Should I use js?
Please help!

It's so much easier to use a library than to script your own. Well unless you want to make it very very light weight.
Also you can just cut the css section you need. Then minify it. Same thing.

34 PointsNo I got the animation working but my question is how to make it repeat after a pause.
