This is a quick way I found to congratulate Brazil's top Olympic medalist, Rebeca Andrade, and, of course, share something I learned during the making of this effect.

HTML
The markup is pretty straightforward, so I don't think there is much to say, other than highlighting the semantic use of HTML elements for structure and clarity, and the use of <strong> tags so you don't have to handle it in the CSS.
CSS
I noticed there is a little random direction of the rotation every time the effect runs, so I passed a dynamic value to the CSS, similar to how we do with props in React.
.heart {
animation-name: like;
animation-duration: 1s;
animation-fill-mode: forwards;
}
@keyframes like {
0% {
opacity: 0;
transform: scale(0)
}
40% {
opacity: .8;
transform: scale(1.2) rotate(var(--random-rotation-deg))
/* dynamic value here 👆 */
}
60% {
opacity: 1;
transform: scale(1)
}
100% {
opacity: 0;
transform: scale(.9) translateY(-500px)
}
}
Javascript
Here's how I created the element, give it the .heart class (which contains the animation-name), and generated the random-rotation-deg value.
const image = document.querySelector('.image');
// listen for the 'dblclick' event
image.addEventListener('dblclick', () => {
const rotation = Math.floor(Math.random() * 80) - 40;
// this function returns a value between -40 and 40
const heart = document.createElement('div');
heart.classList.add('heart');
heart.textContent = '🩷';
heart.style.setProperty('--random-rotation-deg', `${rotation}deg`);
// then, I pass this value so it can be read inside the CSS
image.appendChild(heart);
heart.onanimationend = () => heart.remove();
});
This method dynamically creates a heart element on double-click, applies a random rotation to it, and animates it using CSS keyframes.
For asset management, I'm using Cloudinary which offers 25 GB of storage in the free plan — more than enough for small projects.
Once again, Congratulations to Rebeca Andrade, Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles.
