KPow vid: glow behind card only where cursor is hovering
I cannot find this video!! I saw a thumbnail recently in my suggested and now it’s nowhere to be found.
It was a grid of cards with semi-transparency and when you hovered the border glowed only where you were hovering and reflected onto other cards borders

I just wasted a day on this code, was it worth it?
Trying something very different with this video, where after spending a day working on finding a solution for a fun demo, I found out Hyperplexed already had a video on the same thing. Rather than scrap it though, I decided to share my failed attempts, my final version, and then compare it to Hyperplexed, as well as two different approaches to t...
YES!!! thank you Chris! No wonder my search terms weren’t resulting in finding this 😆
