From basic rectangles to intricate polygons and dynamic animations, learn how to wield CSS clip-path effectively to enhance a website's visual appeal and user engagement.

Starting with foundational concepts, we explore how the inset() function defines precise rectangular clipping, offering control over visibility within specified offsets from each side of the element. Moving beyond simple shapes, we delve into circular and elliptical designs using circle() and ellipse() functions, demonstrating techniques to position and scale shapes responsively across different screen sizes.
