🧩 New modular API
⚡️ Highly performant
🖱️ Scroll-linked animations
🫵 Draggables
↔️ Responsive
✨ Additive animations
🪽 WAAPI support

And so much more!

This to me is what makes a frontend library stand out above the rest – direct side-by-side comparisons with vanilla HTML/CSS/JavaScript.

A developer considering your library should know exactly what underlying built-in API is being abstracted over so they can learn it for themselves.

My cursory impression is it’s basically GSAP, but if it were written from scratch today using the 2025 iteration of web standards, browser APIs and JavaScript tooling instead of what was available in 2012.

That means first-class abstractions on top of CSS variables, individual CSS transform properties like `rotate` / `translate` / `scale`, Intersection Observers, the Web Animations API, full type safety with CSSOM + TypeScript and a bunch more goodies that browsers know how to optimize and are otherwise impossible to facilitate with user-land JavaScript.

Censorship resistance requires privacy.

This is the level of quality and craft on the internet that I would like to have become the norm.

The culmination of the last ten years of animation web standards. So hyped.

That’s an insanely impressive homepage & breakdown.

I’m still on the outskirts of coding & the like, but always fascinated by these kind of emerging innovations.

Are you familiar with how this might differ from GSAP, Lottie or Rive? Performance or otherwise?

okay. this is the coolest thing i've seen in a while.

Very dope. Best site I have seen to showcase a libraries capabilities. Will give it a go

I am so excited to try this out! I’ve been defaulting to using framer motion but really want to give this a try
