This should be an SVG. Using box-shadows to create shapes is not only confusing but really, really performance-draining.

(not to be a downer, it's incredibly impressive, but not something you should do in production code)



Spot on. I clearly state in the description field that it is only an experiment.


SVG fills me with dread. Canvas, maybe.


Why does SVG fill you with dread? (Honest question.)


Probably because of "wall-of-xml" syndrome.

Of course, SVG should be generated by tools rather than typed by hackers, but people tend to forget that.
