I've been working on cloning suno.ai for learning purposes, and I'm facing two challenges. Firstly, I've successfully implemented a play song on scroll functionality using GSAP scroll trigger, but I'm struggling to figure out how to rotate these elements in a half circle as seen on suno.ai.
You can check my live site here.
If anyone has insights or guidance on achieving both the play song on scroll and the rotating elements in a half circle effect, I would greatly appreciate your help!
Thank you.
I've tried placing elements around a circle and rotating a div on scroll, but it won't work as expected.
I had seen one tutorial of this, I don't remember the channel but here is what I created. Check this out
const songsContainer = document.querySelector('#songs')
const songs = songsContainer.querySelectorAll('span')
const skip = songsContainer.querySelectorAll('span.skip').length
const perSongRotationPercentage = 100 / (songs.length - skip)
const totalRotation = 180
const onScroll = () => {
const maxScrollY = songsContainer.clientHeight - window.innerHeight
const scrollPercentage = window.scrollY / maxScrollY * 100
for (let i = 0; i < songs.length; i++) {
const rotationPercentage = i * perSongRotationPercentage
const rotation = rotationPercentage / 100 * totalRotation;
const scrollRotation = scrollPercentage / 100 * totalRotation;
const skipRotation = skip * perSongRotationPercentage / 100 * totalRotation;
songs[i].style.transform = `rotate(${rotation - scrollRotation - skipRotation}deg)`
songs[i].classList.remove('active');
}
const nSongs = songs.length - skip;
const activeSongIndex = skip + Math.round(scrollPercentage / 100 * nSongs)
songs[activeSongIndex]?.classList.add('active');
}
addEventListener("scroll", onScroll)
onScroll()
for (let i = skip; i < songs.length; i++) {
songs[i].addEventListener('click', () => {
const percentage = perSongRotationPercentage * (i - skip);
window.scrollTo({ top: (percentage / 100) * (songsContainer.clientHeight - window.innerHeight), behavior: 'smooth' })
})
