Examples

Basic example

Use transform-3d to position children in 3D space:

<Figure> <Example> { <div className="flex flex-col justify-around gap-8 text-sm leading-6 font-bold text-white sm:flex-row sm:gap-0"> <div className="flex shrink-0 flex-col items-center"> <p className="mb-3 text-center font-mono text-xs font-medium text-gray-500 dark:text-gray-400"> transform-flat </p> <div className="size-40 p-10"> <div className="size-20 rotate-[0.75_1_0.75_45deg] transform-flat *:backface-visible"> <div className="absolute inset-0 translate-z-12 rotate-x-0 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 1 </div> <div className="absolute inset-0 -translate-z-12 rotate-y-180 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 opacity-75 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 2 </div> <div className="absolute inset-0 translate-x-12 rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 opacity-75 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 3 </div> <div className="absolute inset-0 -translate-x-12 -rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 4 </div> <div className="absolute inset-0 -translate-y-12 rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 opacity-75 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 5 </div> <div className="absolute inset-0 translate-y-12 -rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 6 </div> </div> </div> </div> <div className="flex shrink-0 flex-col items-center"> <p className="mb-3 text-center font-mono text-xs font-medium text-gray-500 dark:text-gray-400">transform-3d</p> <div className="size-40 p-10"> <div className="size-20 rotate-[0.75_1_0.75_45deg] transform-3d *:backface-visible"> <div className="absolute inset-0 translate-z-12 rotate-x-0 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 1 </div> <div className="absolute inset-0 -translate-z-12 rotate-y-180 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 opacity-75 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 2 </div> <div className="absolute inset-0 translate-x-12 rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 opacity-75 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 3 </div> <div className="absolute inset-0 -translate-x-12 -rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 4 </div> <div className="absolute inset-0 -translate-y-12 rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 opacity-75 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 5 </div> <div className="absolute inset-0 translate-y-12 -rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 text-center text-4xl leading-20 font-bold text-sky-900 dark:bg-sky-400/85 dark:text-white"> 6 </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> } </Example> </Figure>

Without this, any children will only be transformed in 2D space and not in 3D space.
