A CSS-only wavy divider

Use modern CSS and add a cool Wavy divider to your section. Only one property and two gradients are needed.

CSS-only wavy divider

.wavy {
--s: 1.6em; /* the size of the wave */
--p: .8; /* the curvature of the wave [0 2] */

--R: calc(var(--s)*sqrt(var(--p)*var(--p) + 1)) at 50%;
mask:
radial-gradient(var(--R) calc(100% - var(--s)*(1 + var(--p))), #000 99%, #0000 101%)
calc(50% - 2*var(--s)) 0/calc(4*var(--s)),
radial-gradient(var(--R) calc(100% + var(--s)*var(--p)), #0000 99%, #000 101%)
50% calc(-1*var(--s))/calc(4*var(--s)) repeat-x;
}
