The details of the problem revolve around understanding and effectively utilizing the CSS mask-image property to create visually appealing effects in web design. Specifically, the issue may include difficulties in correctly implementing the property syntax, challenges in applying masks to different HTML elements such as images or text, or seeking guidance on best practices for achieving desired visual effects. Additionally, compatibility concerns across various web browsers and any potential fallback options for older browsers may be part of the problem. Overall, the aim is to gain a comprehensive understanding of CSS masking techniques and leverage the mask-image property to create stunning visual effects in web projects.

I’ve experimented with using the mask-image property in my CSS code to apply masks to different elements on my webpage. I’ve tried various syntaxes and experimented with different types of masks, including SVG-based masks and image-based masks.

<div class="main-mask-background">
    <img src="../src/" alt="img">
</div>

.main-mask-background {
    padding-bottom: 100%;
    position: relative;
    display: block;
    overflow: hidden;
    -webkit-mask-image: url(../images/mask-shapes);
    mask-image: url(../images/mask-shapes);
}
.main-mask-background img {
    position: absolute;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    object-fit: cover;
}
