Magazine Grid that Morphs Between Issues
A coastal quarterly's contents page laid out like a magazine spread: switch between the Spring, Summer and Autumn issues and the five story tiles glide into that issue's own layout, the lead story growing or moving to its new place while the pictures and headlines cross-fade.
The mechanic
Layout as data: an issue is just a grid-template-areas string and five stories, and the View Transitions API does the in-between, so the morph needs no measuring or FLIP code and stays correct at every breakpoint.
How to use it
From prompt to a block in your page.
- 01Try the block
The preview is the shipped block inside a neutral demo page. Scroll, hover, drag: everything is live.
- 02Pick a palette

A paste-in snippet, or a component for Next.js, React, Vue, Astro, WordPress, Shopify or Webflow.
- 04Copy the prompt
It quotes the block's markup, styles and script verbatim with the tokens and the rules that keep it self-contained.
- 05Drop it into your page
Add the head lines it names, paste the block, replace the placeholder copy. Tokens live on :root.
