Text animation · .sds-glow-pulse

Glow Pulse

Pulses with a soft neon glow (loop). Add the class .sds-glow-pulse to any element — it loops continuously as soon as the class is applied, with no JavaScript.

Live demo

Glow Pulse

Demo uses this site's neutral theme; override --sds-primary to match your brand.

Quick start

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@salkomdesignstudio/sds-motion-forge/dist/categories/text.min.css" />

<h1 class="sds-glow-pulse">Glow Pulse</h1>

Loads only the text bundle (core is included).Prefer one file? Use https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@salkomdesignstudio/sds-motion-forge/dist/motion.min.css (all 604 effects).

How it works

Plays as soon as the class is applied, looping continuously. It animates its text glow and movement and scale (transform). Timing is fixed for this effect, but you can still override animation-duration/timing-function on the element.
