Making Switch with SVG Distortion Effect

Cuberto·Dev Team·December 13, 2021·8 min read

This tutorial demonstrates how to build a toggle switch component with a satisfying liquid distortion effect. Using SVG filters and JavaScript, we create a switch that feels organic and responsive to user interaction.

SVG Filter Setup

The core of the effect relies on SVG turbulence and displacement map filters. We configure these filters to create a fluid, gooey appearance that responds dynamically to the switch state.

JavaScript Integration

We wire up the SVG filters with JavaScript event handlers to create smooth transitions between states. The result is a UI component that feels tactile and alive, adding a layer of delight to form interactions.
