Orbit animation
Create an orbit CSS animation effect right in the HTML code
Overview
The orbit loop creates an animation where element orbits around a central point, creating a circular movement. It uses CSS rotate to animate the path, but the element itself does not rotate on its axis. Instead, it stays oriented in the same direction while following a circular trajectory around the center.
Syntax
Default
The default animate:orbit() without any values or options uses these default parameters:
| Name | Default distance | Default options |

Custom values
You can also customize the animation by changing the value and options.

To move the element further from the orbiting center, use your own custom value.
