Spring Snap Tailwind Close Button

A spring with no physics engine: cubic-bezier(.68,-.55,.265,1.55) — declared once as --ease-tcb20-spring — winds back below zero, overshoots past one, and settles, so a plain group-hover:rotate-90 reads as a snap. The drafting-grid face is four stacked backgrounds in a single arbitrary property; press squashes the whole tile on the same spring.

What changed in the port

Which parts became utilities, which stayed CSS, and why.

  • The repeated inline cubic-bezier() became an --ease-tcb20-spring theme token used by both the tile and the glyph.
  • The four-layer background moved verbatim into one arbitrary [background:…] property, with its colours pulled out into theme tokens.
  • UI upgrade from the CSS original: keyboard focus snaps the × and colours the border too, and the accent darkened (0.68 → 0.62) so the glyph clears 3:1 non-text contrast on white.

How this works

Reading the curve. The first handle's y = -0.55 pulls the value backwards before it moves (the wind-up); the second's y = 1.55 carries it past the target before it settles (the overshoot). The browser interpolates the whole spring:

@theme { --ease-tcb20-spring: cubic-bezier(.68,-.55,.265,1.55); }
… duration-500 ease-tcb20-spring group-hover:rotate-90

Make it yours

  • Bouncier: cubic-bezier(.5,-.8,.3,1.9).
  • True spring (multiple bounces): use linear() easing — Chrome 113+, Safari 17.2+, Firefox 112+.
  • Plain face: drop the arbitrary background for bg-white.

Gotchas — read before shipping

  • Overshooting curves on opacity clamp at 0/1 and look like a stall; keep them on transforms.
  • Long arbitrary backgrounds are fine, but give each layer its own _-separated size (_0_0/10px_10px).
