SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Static interfaces often lack feedback, feel abrupt during state changes, and miss opportunities to guide users, making them harder to understand and less engaging to use. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Animation Opportunity Assessment: Identifies missing feedback, jarring transitions, and unclear relationships in a feature before writing any motion code. - Systematic Motion Implementation: Covers entrance animations, micro-interactions, state transitions, navigation effects, and delight moments with concrete timing and easing guidance. - Accessibility and Performance Guardrails: Enforces prefers-reduced-motion support, GPU-accelerated transform/opacity animations, and 60fps performance targets. - Use Case: After shipping a checkout form, use this Skill to add button press feedback, validation shake on errors, smooth accordion transitions, and a success celebration while keeping reduced-motion users supported. ## Quick Start Review the checkout flow and add purposeful animations and micro-interactions that provide feedback and smooth state transitions.

Frequently Asked Questions about animate

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add animations to a web app without hurting performance?▼

Animate only transform and opacity properties, which are GPU-accelerated and avoid layout recalculation. Keep feedback animations between 100-300ms, monitor for 60fps on target devices, and use will-change sparingly for known expensive animations.

What easing curves should I use for UI animations?▼

Use ease-out curves like cubic-bezier(0.25, 1, 0.5, 1) or cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1) for natural deceleration. Avoid bounce and elastic curves, which feel dated and draw attention to the animation itself rather than the content.

Should I use CSS animations or JavaScript libraries like Framer Motion?▼

Use CSS transitions and keyframes for simple declarative state changes. Use the Web Animations API, Framer Motion for React, or GSAP when you need programmatic control, complex sequences, or interactive gesture-driven animations.

How do I make animations accessible for reduced motion users?▼

Respect the prefers-reduced-motion media query by setting animation and transition durations near zero within that media query. Always provide non-animated alternatives so users with motion sensitivity get equivalent feedback.

Why do my UI animations feel janky or laggy?▼

Jank usually comes from animating layout properties like width, height, top, or left, which trigger expensive reflows. Switch to transform and opacity, reduce repaints with contain, and keep durations under 500ms for feedback.
