How It Works

  1. Perspective Effect – The perspective property gives a 3D feel.

  2. Flip Animation – On hover, the rotateY(180deg) creates the flip effect.

  3. Neon Glow – Achieved with box-shadow in cyan for a glowing edge.

Customization Tips

  • Change #0ff to any color code for different neon colors.

  • Adjust transition: transform 1s; to make the flip faster or slower.

  • Modify card size in .card class to fit your design.

Where to Use This Effect

  • Portfolio websites for showcasing projects.

  • E-commerce product displays with front details & back descriptions.

  • Interactive business cards in a digital format.

  • Gaming or tech sites for a futuristic look.
