Gradient border motion

Animated Border Card Playground

Use this local page to validate a reusable card component with a rotating conic-gradient border layer while the card content stays on a separate static surface.

Implementation note

How this border animation works

Each card uses a thin padded shell with overflow hidden. Inside it, an oversized conic-gradient layer rotates continuously, while a second inner panel sits above it and keeps the text readable. This reproduces the animated-border pattern from the reference template without coupling the effect to page-specific markup.
