Moving Background Gradient with dark theme inspired by Webflow Community hero section

Moving Gradient Background

Robin Granqvist

I recently saw the "Unstoppable" site on Awwwards (http://unstoppable.preciosacomponents.com) and of course I wondered if I would be able to recreate it in Webflow. And so I did, but in a Norway theme instead. 🤙

Please let the background video load for a bit, since there's no preloader.

Jerome Bergamaschi

A soft, layered background that reacts to your cursor. Paper-cut shapes drift on mouse movement to build a gentle parallax depth, made entirely with native Webflow interactions (no GSAP, no external scripts). Clone it, drop your content on top, and use it as a hero, a portfolio intro, or a landing background.

We've had a lot of requests for autoscrolling images in background and haven't come across a solution within the Webflow community. Feel free to contribute any suggestions or ideas to improve this feature.

Subtle background noise - There are two pages within this project:

1) Custom CSS version
2) 100% Webflow version

Background Noise Effect (100% Webflow)

Jonas Arleth

From my Webflow online course community came the wish to build this video player, which basically runs in a loop without sound as a background video. 
If you click on on the unmute button, the video plays from the beginning and the sound is activated.  

We need a bit of custom jQuery code for this. In addition, the Vimeo API must be included if you want to address Vimeo iFrames.

Watch the tutorial here: https://youtu.be/mKFZxHpYGng

Federico

Fully parametric, configurable animated gradients done in vanilla WebGl. Reacts to mouse position.

——
You can tweak the parameters keeping the data-test attribute and kill it when you find what you like simply by removing it.

Parameters are served through attributes. Everything is explained in the repo linked in the custom code /body section.

——
CHANGELOG
02/11/12 — fixed controls not disappearing when removing data-test

——
Quite random and can be done better, might make more tweaks in the future. Inspired by the recent @ webflow.com/skylartkitchen AE cloneable.

Webgl Reactive Animated Gradient

Dhruv Sachdev

This is just a fun, simple clone I've built to experiment with some interactions.

It features a hero section that reveals changing images & videos (using CSS). I've written some code that will simulate the cycling effect on Tablet/ Mobile. 

My stretch goal is to refine the "menu interaction" (need to spend a bit more time) and implement a dark mode switch. Rebuilt from https://www.cristobalbalenciagamuseoa.com

Hi Everyone! Here is an Architecture Magazine layout I built in Webflow to showcase Grid 2.0 and Flexbox. 

The design is by Juraj Masar. Here is his Dribbble page: https://dribbble.com/masar_official

Here is the video tutorial on how I created this layout in Webflow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oc4HHJ--KHo
