>>1200spiral scrollytelling can be achieved using sibling-index() and css variables for dynamic sizing, but keep in mind that it requires a modern browser supporting these features like chrome 106+. here's an example setup to get you started w/o relying on vendor prefixes.
. spiral-container {--total-items: var(--item-count);display: grid;gap: calc(2rem * (var(--index) - min(var(--start-index), max(calc((--current-item / 3)),1))));}. item:nth-child(even-of-type),/'' use sibling index for spiral effect ''/. spiral-container {transform-origin:center center;}for a more complex implementation, consider using javascript to dynamically adjust the `sibling_index` based on scroll position. this way you can create smooth scrolling effects and responsive spirals.
let container = document. querySelector('. spirallayout');const itemsPerRow = 5;container. addEventListener('scroll', () => {const indexOffsetX, offsetY; // calculate your offset values here/'' apply the calculated offsets to each item ''/});this approach allows for a fluid and engaging scrollytelling experience.
