Modern Glass Calculator
An elegant calculator application featuring a glass-morphic design with a stunning gradient background, smooth animations, and full keyboard support.
Project Overview
Created a modern calculator that showcases advanced CSS techniques and clean JavaScript implementation while providing a delightful user experience. The project demonstrates how fundamental tools can be transformed into visually striking applications through thoughtful design and attention to detail.
Implementation
Developed with several key technical and design features: - Implemented a glass-morphic UI using advanced CSS techniques including backdrop-filter and linear gradients - Created a responsive design with a soothing cotton candy gradient background (320deg blend of pink, blue, and teal) - Built custom button components with hover and active states for enhanced interactivity - Implemented precise decimal handling and floating-point calculations - Added full keyboard support with intuitive key mappings - Designed a dual-display system showing both current input and expression history - Utilized CSS backdrop-filter for frosted glass effects - Implemented smooth transitions and hover effects for all interactive elements
Challenges
Overcame several technical challenges: - Engineered precise floating-point arithmetic handling to avoid calculation errors - Implemented robust keyboard event handling with multiple operator support - Created a seamless glass effect that works across different browsers - Developed an efficient state management system for calculator operations - Designed an intuitive expression display system that shows operation history - Ensured consistent rendering of the glass effect across different browsers
Outcome
Successfully created a calculator that combines beautiful design with robust functionality. The application features a modern glass-morphic interface with a carefully crafted color scheme, smooth animations, and full keyboard support. The implementation demonstrates mastery of modern CSS techniques, particularly in creating sophisticated visual effects while maintaining clean, maintainable JavaScript code.
