Yup, had to get it out quick so I went simple! Just a single SVG that I shift elements back and forth on, and rotated so it looks like it's floating!
Curious what tool/tools you used for that if any.
Normally, however, I'd use GSAP for SVG animations: https://greensock.com/gsap/

Do you mind estimating exactly how quickly something like that could be produced? Great job!
This is good effort. SideQuestion: Given that most of MDN were laid off, Would MDN continue? It was good imo.
Before MDN goes down, someone should archive the entire MDN.
Seeing this list makes me wonder: is Mozilla the only major software development nonprofit? (Feel free to interpret "major" however you want if you answer the question.) Regardless of one's feelings about Mozilla, the layoffs are really disheartening. And - sorry for the spicy take - I'm bummed to see Facebook and Amazon on this list. It would be nice to see other nonprofits on the list, but it's doubly disappointing…
Particular areas that may be of interest include developer documentation (making https://matrix.org/docs/spec and https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc not suck), Safety engineering (subjective decentralised reputation, anti-abuse and anti-spam), Rust (https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-rust-sdk is in the ascendant), and even possibly VR (we are on a mission to ensure Matrix is the comms protocol of the multiverse) - although Safety & Spec (and generally hacking on Element and Matrix itself) are the most important domains right now. https://element.io/careers has more details.
As for why there's a red panda in the boat... despite the logo distinctly picturing a fox on fire, a "firefox" is actually the name for a red panda!
It's very weird that Mozilla is laying off 25% of its workforce while at the same time spending oodles of cash on its Fix The Internet incubator. I'm not a business major; maybe this is normal.
As someone who's been involved in setting up a corporate incubator, this is a pretty common dilemma. The way that we viewed it at my previous company was basically it's two different businesses, two different P&L's and two different sets of metrics and KPIs. You could see them as two different business units that can succeed or fail independently. If one Business Unit is struggling, you can't just fill the holes by t…
While the Mozilla corporation is for profit entity , the goals of the foundation and reason Mozilla foundation /corporation exists is not to make or maximise profit .
Non profits generally run on the principles of sustainability I.e are they spending more than endowments or they drawing on the principal amount etc.
In Mozilla case drop in revenue/ donations resulting in cancelled projects is per se not abnormal , but which projects are shelved depends on how the mission is interpreted.
It is perfectly within the foundation remit to infuse capital into the corporation if they had more money and they also believed the work of the corporation is more important than some foundation projects to the overall foundation’s mission.
Just like NASA cancels other projects when one project like JWST goes a lot overbudget , with approvals from congress if required .
Clearly the foundation did not think corporation projects were worth saying over others , we can debate that , but they did and do have that choice
