Okay, you are asking about pseudo-selectors (or pseudo-classes) that can change an element after it's been animated.
In CSS, selectors include things like classes, IDs, elements, and also pseudo-classes and pseudo-elements. The term "pseudo-selector" isn't standard. The right terms are pseudo-classes (like :hover, :active) and pseudo-elements (like ::before, ::after). I explain it in pointing out that the term should be "pseudo-classes."
In standard CSS, there is no pseudo-class to directly target an element after an animation ends. Instead, you can use -
š®š»š¶šŗš®šš¶š¼š»-š³š¶š¹š¹-šŗš¼š±š²: š³š¼šæšš®šæš±š to retain the elementās final animated state.
In JavaScript (via the š®š»š¶šŗš®šš¶š¼š»š²š»š± event) to add/remove classes and apply styles post-animation.
If using JQuery, theĀ :š®š»š¶šŗš®šš²š±Ā pseudo-class exists, but itĀ targets elements during an animation, not after it completes.
For animations, CSS relies on properties/events to manage post-animation styles.
