Implemented crossfade page transitions using Svelte's transition system:

How it works:
- Wrapped <slot /> in {#key} block that triggers on route changes
- Used fade transition with staggered timing for smooth effect
- Out transition: 150ms fade (page leaving)
- In transition: 300ms fade with 150ms delay (page entering)
- Total transition time: 450ms for complete crossfade

Benefits:
- Smooth visual continuity when navigating
- No jarring content swaps
- Professional polish to the user experience
- Uses cubicOut easing for natural motion

The transitions work across all pages and don't interfere with the boot animation or mobile menu.
Created a custom warp transition that combines multiple effects:

Warp Transition Features:
- 3D rotation (rotateY 90deg) for flip effect
- Dynamic perspective (1000px) for depth
- Scale transformation (0.8 to 1.0)
- Motion blur (0 to 10px) during transition
- Smooth opacity fade
- cubicInOut easing for natural motion

Timing:
- Out transition: 300ms warp exit
- In transition: 400ms warp entry with 100ms delay
- Total: 700ms for full 3D flip effect

Visual Impact:
- Pages appear to rotate and flip in 3D space
- Blur effect adds motion feel
- Scale creates depth perception
- Much more dynamic than simple fade
- Professional, modern aesthetic

The effect gives the impression of pages physically turning/warping as you navigate between routes.
Tuned down the intensity while keeping the sophisticated 3D effect:

Changes from aggressive to subtle:
- Rotation: 90deg → 12deg (gentle tilt vs dramatic flip)
- Scale: 0.8-1.0 → 0.96-1.0 (barely noticeable vs obvious)
- Blur: 10px → 2px (soft vs heavy)
- Added translateX: 30px horizontal slide for smooth lateral movement
- Perspective: 1000px → 1200px for more refined depth

Effect:
- Gentle 3D page slide with subtle depth
- Soft blur adds motion feel without overwhelming
- Small rotation creates elegant tilt
- Horizontal slide gives directional flow
- Much more refined and professional
- Noticeable but not distracting

Perfect balance of sophistication and subtlety.
Removed all 3D rotation, blur, and perspective effects in favor of a minimal, elegant approach:

New transition:
- Simple vertical slide (20px upward)
- Smooth opacity fade
- cubicInOut easing for natural motion
- No blur, rotation, or scaling

Timing:
- Out: 250ms (page leaving)
- Delay: 120ms gap
- In: 350ms (page entering)
- Total: 720ms smooth transition

Benefits:
- Clean and professional
- Commonly used by high-end websites
- No visual gimmicks or distractions
- Smooth, polished feel
- Works perfectly on all devices
- Focuses attention on content

Simple, elegant, and timeless - exactly what a professional portfolio needs.
Removed all movement - now just fade and blur for maximum smoothness:

Transition effects:
- Smooth opacity fade (0 to 1)
- Gentle blur (4px to 0px)
- cubicInOut easing for natural feel
- No movement, rotation, or scaling

Timing:
- Out: 250ms
- Delay: 120ms
- In: 350ms

Result:
Ultra-smooth, dreamy transition that focuses purely on the content appearing/disappearing. The blur adds a soft, professional quality without any distracting motion.

Clean, simple, and elegant.
Removed |global modifiers from all flyAndScale element animations to prevent them from conflicting with the page-level warp transition. This fixes the zoom/breaking effect that occurred during route changes.

- Element animations now only fire on component mount
- Page-level fade+blur transition handles route changes
- Smoother, cleaner navigation experience
