Rotating-card is a lightweight CSS template from Creative Tim that adds a 3D flip effect to a card element, deployable to Genezio with one click.
What is rotating-card?
Rotating-card is a front-end template that implements a card component with a rotation effect, commonly used to reveal additional content on the back of the card. It is distributed through the GitHub repository named 'rotating-css-card' under the Creative Tim organization. The template is intended to be deployed as a static site or component on the Genezio platform, using the provided one-click deploy button that directly links to the repository.
Key Features
- One-click Genezio deployment — The template includes a deploy button that sends the repository to Genezio's app creation flow, bypassing manual setup.
- CSS-based rotation — The card's flip motion is accomplished with CSS transforms, meaning no JavaScript library is required for the core effect.
- Creative Tim design language — The card is styled according to Creative Tim's open-source component aesthetics, which are used across their template collection.
- Open source availability — The complete source code is public on GitHub, allowing developers to inspect, modify, and redistribute it under the project's license.
Who is it for?
- Front-end developers who need a ready-made card with a rotation animation to use in a portfolio, product page, or UI experiment.
- Genezio platform users who want a minimal starting point to test deployment workflows without writing backend code.
- Web designers looking for a clean, minimal card style that can be customized with a few CSS variable changes.
What can you do with rotating-card?
