Definition and Usage
The animation-fill-mode property specifies a style for the element when the animation is not playing (before
it starts, after it ends, or both).
CSS animations do not affect the element before the first keyframe is played
or after the last keyframe is played. The animation-fill-mode property can override this
behavior.

| backwards | The element will get the style values that is set by the first keyframe (depends on animation-direction), and retain this during the animation-delay period |
| both | The animation will follow the rules for both forwards and backwards, extending the animation properties in both directions |
| initial | Sets this property to its default value. Read about initial |
| inherit | Inherits this property from its parent element. Read about inherit |
