This collection showcases a set of custom-animated SVG icons I designed, leveraging external CSS to dynamically style and animate multiple icon elements. Each icon consists of four standardized layers: background, fill01, fill02, and outlines, all tagged via a shared CSS file. This setup provides complete control over colors and animation behaviors.
The animations are triggered by a hover (mouse-over) state, allowing for smooth transitions like fade-ins or wipe effects across the fill elements. The design process began with quick conceptual sketches, which were refined into vector graphics using Adobe Illustrator. To maintain consistency and streamline coding, I adhered to a standardized layer-naming convention. Upon exporting the icons as SVGs, I applied a few simple text edits to integrate the external CSS file.
Additional enhancements included the addition of titles, descriptions, and ARIA attributes to ensure the SVGs were accessible and ready for deployment. This meticulous approach to design and coding delivers highly flexible and visually engaging animated icons tailored for various applications.
