What you’ll learn

Heart ECG monitor — drawing a live, scrolling heartbeat line with GraphicsView, an IDrawable, and a dispatcher timer
Ripple pulse — layering ScaleTo and FadeTo in a loop to radiate expanding rings from a beating heart
Blinking heart — combining opacity and scale for a subtle, elegant pulse
Rotating heart — a continuous RotateTo loop that doubles as a loading indicator
Jumping heart — chaining TranslateTo calls with easing for a bouncy, looping motion
