Switched from Flexbox to CSS Grid to enable true staggered animations.
Why Grid works better:
- Grid children maintain their grid cell during layout changes
- Buttons can transition individually within their cells
- grid-auto-flow change doesn't force simultaneous repositioning
Changes:
- Container: display: grid with grid-auto-flow
- Desktop: grid-auto-flow: row (vertical stack)
- Mobile: grid-auto-flow: column (horizontal row)
- Buttons: transition: all 0.5s with staggered delays (0s, 0.08s, 0.16s, 0.24s, 0.32s)
Result: Each button now cascades independently when resizing between
desktop and mobile layouts, creating the smooth wave effect.
The issue was that 'transition: all' on the container was forcing all
buttons to move together. Fixed by:
1. Container now transitions only: left, bottom, gap, transform
(NOT flex-direction or all properties)
2. Buttons transition only: transform, opacity, background-color, box-shadow, color
(NOT all properties)
3. Increased stagger delays for better visual effect:
- Button 1: 0s (instant)
- Button 2: 0.08s
- Button 3: 0.16s
- Button 4: 0.24s
- Button 5: 0.32s
4. Added flex-direction: 0s transition in mobile to instant switch direction
while buttons still cascade to new positions
Result: Each button now animates independently with cascading wave effect
when switching between desktop (vertical) and mobile (horizontal) layouts.
Implemented beautiful cascading animation effect where each button
animates individually with a staggered delay.
Changes:
- Each button now has transition: all 0.4s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)
- Added nth-child selectors with progressive delays:
* Button 1: 0.05s delay
* Button 2: 0.10s delay
* Button 3: 0.15s delay
* Button 4: 0.20s delay
* Button 5: 0.25s delay
Effect:
When viewport changes (desktop ↔ mobile), buttons don't move as a group.
Instead, they cascade one by one creating a wave-like animation:
- Desktop→Mobile: Buttons flow from vertical to horizontal sequentially
- Mobile→Desktop: Buttons stack from horizontal to vertical one by one
This creates a much cooler, more polished animation than moving all
buttons simultaneously. The 50ms stagger creates perfect visual rhythm.
Fixes:
1. ✅ Reversed button order - Info at bottom, Download at top
- Desktop (bottom→top): Info → Shortcuts → Zoom → Print → Download
- Mobile (left→right): Download → Print → Shortcuts → Info
2. ✅ Restored smooth morphing transitions
- Added transition: all 0.4s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)
- Container smoothly transforms from vertical to horizontal
- Buttons smoothly reposition during responsive transition
3. ✅ Preserved all special hover behaviors
- Zoom button: Blue hover + highlights zoom control
- Print button: White bg + green icon on hover (synchronized)
- Download button: Red bg on hover (synchronized)
- All sync functions working: syncPdfHover, syncPrintHover, highlightZoomControl
The flexbox container now has the correct button order AND smooth animations!
Major architectural improvement for button management:
Desktop Layout (left side, vertical):
- Created .fixed-buttons-container positioned left: 2rem, bottom: 2rem
- Buttons stack vertically with flex-direction: column
- Order (bottom to top): Info → Shortcuts → Zoom → Print → Download
- 1rem (16px) gap between buttons
- All buttons 50×50px with consistent styling
- Easy to add/remove buttons - just add template to container
Mobile Layout (bottom center, horizontal):
- Container switches to flex-direction: row at @media (max-width: 900px)
- Centered with left: 50% and transform: translateX(-50%)
- 10px gap between buttons
- Zoom button hidden on mobile (display: none)
- 4 visible buttons: Info, Shortcuts, Print, Download
Benefits:
✅ Single source of truth - container manages all buttons
✅ Easy to add/remove buttons - no manual position calculations
✅ Responsive - automatic reflow from vertical to horizontal
✅ Maintainable - changes in one place affect all buttons
✅ Consistent spacing - gap property ensures even distribution
✅ Future-proof - adding button = adding template to container
Technical Implementation:
- Container uses position: fixed with flexbox
- Buttons use position: relative inside container (not fixed individually)
- All positioning managed by flexbox (gap, flex-direction, align-items)
- Hover states preserved with color-coded backgrounds per button
- Back-to-top button remains separate (not in container)
This replaces individual fixed positioning with a scalable flex layout.
Changes:
- Replaced fixed positioning with flexible layout for mobile buttons
- Now shows 4 buttons on mobile: Download, Print, Shortcuts, Info
- Hide only Zoom button on mobile (accessible via hamburger menu)
- All buttons now 50×50px (consistent size, info button was smaller)
- Even 10px spacing between buttons
- Perfectly centered as a group in viewport
- Future-proof: easy to add/remove buttons without breaking layout
Layout details:
- Total width: 4 buttons × 50px + 3 gaps × 10px = 230px
- Centered using calc(50% - offset) for each button
- Maintains smooth hover effects with translateY only
- All buttons at same vertical position (bottom: 1.5rem)
Benefits:
- Consistent button sizes across mobile/desktop
- Maintainable: adding/removing buttons only requires adjusting calculations
- Better UX: users can access all main actions from bottom bar
- Shortcuts and info buttons now easily accessible on mobile
This commit includes two major improvements:
1. Hyperscript Code Organization:
- Extracted all hyperscript blocks >3 lines into reusable functions
- Created 6 new functions in functions._hs:
* toggleCVLength(isLong) - CV length toggle sync

2. Mobile Button Layout (max-width: 900px):
- Repositioned three fixed buttons (PDF, Print, Info) horizontally at bottom center
- Print button perfectly centered in viewport
- Download button on left, Info button on right
- Hidden zoom and shortcuts buttons on mobile (available in hamburger menu)
- Removed conflicting old mobile styles that were hiding print button
- Smooth hover transitions maintained with proper transform calculations
Technical details:

Print Button Improvements:
- Hover shows white background with green icon (was green bg + white icon)
- Applied to all print buttons: fixed, action bar, and menu
- Default state remains dark gray with white icon
Zoom Control Improvements:
- Text now 100% white (was 70-95% opacity) for better readability
- Increased font sizes: labels 0.95rem (was 0.8rem), current value 1.05rem (was 0.9rem)
- Hover zoom toggle button highlights zoom control with blue glow shadow
- Active zoom button uses semi-transparent blue rgba(52, 152, 219, 0.5) instead of solid
Z-Index Fix:

- Replaced JavaScript-based toast timing with pure CSS animation lifecycle (slide in → stay → fade out)
- Removed unnecessary event handlers and legacy compatibility code for cleaner implementation
- Replace CSS zoom with transform: scale() for proper viewport extension
- Add dynamic margin-bottom to position footer correctly
- Remove zoom: 1 reset from fixed buttons (no longer needed)
- Enables true zoom from 10% to 500% that extends beyond viewport
- Add green background (#27ae60) to info and back-to-top buttons when at page bottom
- Implement bottom detection (within 50px threshold) in scroll handler
- Add conditional green hover to zoom reset button (only when zoom ≠ 100%)
- Enhance UX with visual feedback for scroll position and zoom state
Switched from transform: scale() to CSS zoom property on zoom-wrapper.
CSS zoom changes actual layout space, not just visual rendering:
- At 50% zoom, wrapper takes 50% space (no reserved empty space)
- Footer naturally follows right after zoomed content
- At 200% zoom, content extends beyond viewport with scrolling
- Fixes the large gray gap between content and footer
- Created zoom-wrapper div around cv-container
- Zoom now applies to wrapper only, footer adjusts naturally below
- Footer no longer scaled, stays at normal size
- Fixes gap between content and footer at low zoom levels
- Reduced back-to-top button size (35px default, grows to 50px on hover)
- Cleaner separation of concerns for zoom functionality
- Moved "Zoom" button from action bar to hamburger menu under "Acciones Rápidas"
- Close button (X) now grey/subtle by default (opacity: 0.7)
- Close button turns red only on hover for clear indication
- Updated JavaScript to reference show-zoom-menu-btn instead of show-zoom-btn
- Added preventDefault to showZoomControl to prevent link navigation
CSS zoom property had constraints preventing proper zoom beyond 100%.
Switched back to transform: scale() which provides true visual zoom
that can extend beyond viewport bounds at 100-200% range.
- Add close button (X) to zoom control widget
- Make zoom control draggable anywhere on screen
- Persist dragged position in localStorage (cv-zoom-position)
- Add "Zoom" button to action bar to show control when hidden
- Persist visibility state in localStorage (cv-zoom-visible)
- Cursor changes to "move" to indicate draggability
- Interactive elements (slider, buttons) don't trigger drag
- Position stays within viewport bounds
- All features work on desktop only (zoom hidden on mobile)
- Hide zoom control on mobile viewports (≤768px) via CSS
- Skip loading saved zoom on mobile, always use 100%
- Add resize handler to reset zoom when switching to mobile view
- Clean up unnecessary mobile-specific zoom styles
- Prevents confusion on touch devices where zoom is less useful
Changed from transform: scale() to CSS zoom property which affects actual
document layout space. At 50% zoom, content now takes 50% space instead of
reserving full 100% height. This eliminates the large gray empty space issue.
Removed proportional scroll adjustment that was causing page to jump down
when zooming. The transform-origin: top center property keeps content
anchored at top naturally without needing scroll compensation.
Changed zoom target from .cv-paper to .cv-container and .cv-footer to fix issue
where 50% zoom still reserved 100% document space creating empty areas. Both
elements now scale together, properly reducing space at low zoom levels while
keeping main action bar unaffected.
- Modified applyZoom() to target .cv-container and .cv-footer
- Added transform-origin, transition, and will-change to both CSS selectors
- Maintains proportional scroll compensation for smooth visual experience
The dynamic height adjustment was setting a fixed height on .cv-paper,
but the footer is a sibling element OUTSIDE .cv-paper in the DOM.
This caused the footer to be positioned incorrectly and hidden.
Removed:
- dataset.originalHeight storage
- height calculation and setting
- All dynamic height adjustment logic
The CSS transform: scale() will handle the visual zoom without
affecting the natural document flow, allowing the footer to
appear properly after the content.
Result: Footer should now be visible at all zoom levels
Increased .cv-main bottom padding from 1rem to 8rem to ensure:
- Footer is fully visible and not hidden behind content
- Adequate clearance for zoom control (positioned at bottom: 100px)
- Proper breathing room between content and footer
Result: Footer now properly visible in normal view
The margin-top: -60px on .cv-footer was pulling the footer up too much,
hiding the GitHub link and other footer content.
Removed the negative margin - the reduced .cv-main bottom padding
(1rem instead of 3rem) already provides better spacing without hiding content.
Result:
- Footer content (GitHub, LinkedIn links) now visible
- Still has better spacing than before
- Zoom control at 100px bottom clears footer properly
