Build Something That Surprises

This April, we are focusing on the reveal. Build a simple interactive page featuring an Easter surprise, where something hidden is revealed in a fun and delightful way. You do not need to build a full application. You only need to build a moment worth cracking open.

💡 What to Build?

Create an interactive webpage with an Easter surprise experience around an idea you care about.

Here are some ideas:

An Easter egg that cracks open on click 🥚
A mystery box that reveals a hidden gift 🎁
A greeting card with a secret surprise inside 💌
An egg hunt with hidden interactions across the page 🐰
A surprise reveal quiz with an unexpected result 🎉

You're not building the full product. You're building the moment that makes someone smile.

🧱 Challenge Requirements

Must be written in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
Must run on the Playground
Must include a landing or intro screen and at least one reveal moment
Must include at least two interactive elements (click to reveal, animations, transitions, confetti, sound)
Project should be fun, surprising, and designed to delight

💡 Tip: You're Not Alone!

Stuck on animations? Not sure how to trigger a reveal on click? Debugging a tricky interaction?
