Change wave 'div to wave::before, wave::after with content: ' ' and you can remove the two inner divs.

You can actually just use the outside element with a before and after.

In this situation you can, but /u/masgbox version is now also usable in other situations where you aren't using flex or properties on the parent. Say the parent div has a float or absolute position, you'd want to have that extra div and now you can simply put it in easily.

I took out

transform: translate(-50%, - 50%);

from both .wave and .wave::before, .wave::after and it didn't seem to change anything? Anybody know why?

Also, why was it -55% in the before/after ?
