		zactato on Jan 12, 2022 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Show HN: I built a gravity simulator in pure CSS It's a fun page, but the gravitational acceleration is clearly wrong. You animated some balls in CSS, you didn't model gravity. I think this might be a good example of using the wrong tool for the job. JS would work great for this use case. No need to try to force CSS to do it.

Harsh comments for a pretty impressive page, in my opinion.

It's a css animation demo describing physical phenomenon- describing it as a physical simulator leads to disappointment.
