Mobile-inspired calculator with 3D phone simulation built using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
👉 https://jbmsacps-stack.github.io/calculator-webpage/calculator.html
A fully functional calculator web application designed to replicate a modern mobile calculator interface, enhanced with a 3D phone simulation effect.
This project focuses on UI realism, interaction feedback, and structured frontend logic using core web technologies.
-
Arithmetic operations:
+ − × ÷ -
Input controls:
- Clear (
AC) - Delete (
DEL)
- Clear (
-
Real-time clock display (
HH:MM) -
Interactive button feedback (hover & active states)
-
Mobile-style calculator layout
-
3D phone container with perspective and hover interaction
-
Smooth shadow and depth transitions
-
The calculator is wrapped inside a simulated phone frame
-
On hover, the phone:
- Adjusts its perspective
- Enhances depth using shadows
- Slightly scales for a realistic lift effect
This creates a more immersive, device-like experience rather than a flat UI.
| Layer | Technology | Responsibility |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | HTML | Layout and UI components |
| Styling | CSS | Design, 3D effects, animations |
| Logic | JavaScript | Input handling & calculations |
- Dark theme for visual comfort
- Circular buttons with inset glow effects
- Grid-based layout for consistency
- 3D perspective using CSS
transformandperspective - Hover-triggered device interaction
- Minimal, focused UI
- Calculator logic handled via DOM manipulation
- Expression evaluation using:
eval(expression)- Real-time clock using:
setInterval()- 3D interaction implemented using:
perspective + transform + hover state.

The project uses eval() for simplicity.
For production-grade applications, this should be replaced with a safe parsing approach or math library.
- Keyboard input support
- Replace
eval()with safer logic - Add calculation history
- Improve responsiveness
- Add dynamic lighting / reflection effects
- Multi-device simulation (tablet / desktop UI)
