    📌 Objective: Learn how to use Bootstrap’s built-in animations, transitions, and CSS utilities to create smooth effects in UI elements.

    🔹 1. Introduction to Bootstrap Animations & Transitions

    Bootstrap provides CSS-based animations and transitions to enhance user experience without requiring JavaScript.

    💡 Why Use Bootstrap Animations & Transitions?
    ✔️ Smooth UI experience – Enhances visibility of elements.
    ✔️ No extra JavaScript needed – Uses pure CSS for effects.
    ✔️ Lightweight and fast – Optimized for performance.

    🔹 2. Bootstrap CSS Transitions

    Transitions allow smooth changes between two states (e.g., hover effects).

    ✅ Example: Button with Smooth Hover Effect

    html
    <style>
    .btn-hover-effect {
    transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out;
    }
    .btn-hover-effect:hover {
    background-color: darkblue;
    color: white;
    transform: scale(1.1);
    }
    </style>

    <button class="btn btn-primary btn-hover-effect">Hover Me</button>

    🔹 What happens?

    • When hovering over the button, it changes color and grows slightly.

    🔹 3. Bootstrap Fade & Slide Animations

    Bootstrap includes built-in classes for fading and sliding effects.

    1️⃣ Fading In & Out

    ✅ Example: Fade-In Effect

    html
    <button class="btn btn-success" onclick="document.getElementById('fadeBox').classList.toggle('show');">
    Toggle Fade
    </button>

    <div id="fadeBox" class="alert alert-warning fade">
    This box will fade in and out.
    </div>

    🔹 What happens?

    • Clicking the button fades the box in and out.

    2️⃣ Sliding Elements

    ✅ Example: Slide Down Animation

    html
    <style>
    .slide-down {
    max-height: 0;
    overflow: hidden;
    transition: max-height 0.5s ease-in-out;
    }
    .slide-down.show {
    max-height: 200px;
    }
    </style>

    <button class="btn btn-info" onclick="document.getElementById('slideBox').classList.toggle('show');">
    Toggle Slide
    </button>

    <div id="slideBox" class="alert alert-primary slide-down">
    This box will slide down.
    </div>

    🔹 What happens?

    • Clicking the button slides the box down smoothly.

    🔹 4. Bootstrap Spinner Animations

    Bootstrap provides prebuilt loading spinners.

    ✅ Example: Basic Loading Spinner

    html
    <div class="spinner-border text-primary" role="status">
    <span class="visually-hidden">Loading...</span>
    </div>

    🔹 What happens?

    • A spinning loader appears to indicate loading.

    1️⃣ Growing Spinner

    ✅ Example: Growing Spinner

    html
    <div class="spinner-grow text-danger" role="status">
    <span class="visually-hidden">Loading...</span>
    </div>

    🔹 What happens?

    • The spinner grows and shrinks continuously.

    🔹 5. Bootstrap Animate-On-Scroll

    You can use Bootstrap’s visibility utilities to trigger animations on scroll.

    ✅ Example: Fade-In on Scroll

    html
    <style>
    .fade-scroll {
    opacity: 0;
    transform: translateY(20px);
    transition: opacity 0.5s ease, transform 0.5s ease;
    }
    .fade-scroll.visible {
    opacity: 1;
    transform: translateY(0);
    }
    </style>

    <div class="container">
    <div id="scrollBox" class="alert alert-success fade-scroll">
    This box will appear when you scroll.
    </div>
    </div>

    <script>
    document.addEventListener("scroll", function () {
    let element = document.getElementById("scrollBox");
    let position = element.getBoundingClientRect().top;
    let screenHeight = window.innerHeight;
    if (position < screenHeight) {
    element.classList.add("visible");
    }
    });
    </script>

    🔹 What happens?

    • The box fades in when scrolling.

    🔹 6. Bootstrap Animated Modals

    ✅ Example: Modal with Slide Animation

    html
    <!-- Button to Open Modal -->
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-bs-toggle="modal" data-bs-target="#animatedModal">
    Open Animated Modal
    </button>

    <!-- Modal -->
    <div class="modal fade" id="animatedModal">
    <div class="modal-dialog">
    <div class="modal-content">
    <div class="modal-header">
    <h5 class="modal-title">Animated Modal</h5>
    <button type="button" class="btn-close" data-bs-dismiss="modal"></button>
    </div>
    <div class="modal-body">
    This modal fades in and out smoothly.
    </div>
    </div>
    </div>
    </div>

    🔹 What happens?

    • The modal fades in and out smoothly.

    🔹 7. Bootstrap Animate Elements Using Keyframes

    ✅ Example: Custom Keyframe Animation

    html
    <style>
    @keyframes bounce {
    0%, 100% { transform: translateY(0); }
    50% { transform: translateY(-10px); }
    }
    .bouncing {
    animation: bounce 0.5s infinite;
    }
    </style>

    <button class="btn btn-warning bouncing">Bouncing Button</button>

    🔹 What happens?

    • The button bounces continuously.
