An Afternoon with SVGs | Frontend Challenge Entry
I've been looking for a small project to do that would let me play with Greensock (GSAP), specifically a bit with some SVG files I generated with Corel Vector. When I saw the frontend challenge and had an afternoon at work with downtime between a few projects, I knew it'd be a great opportunity to explore a bit!

How to Add Animations to your React App Using GSAP
The GreenSock Animation Platform (GSAP) is a web animation library that provides the logic for adding animation to any site powered by JavaScript. React, being built on top of JavaScript, falls under this category. GSAP is an extremely fun animation tool to use because it offers a great deal of flexibility, you can animate anything using GSAP — texts, images, scroll actions, SVGs, UI interactions, anything!
The most exciting feature about GSAP is its speed, it runs your animation sequences very fast. It is also a very popular framework with about 292,000 weekly downloads.

Which engine should I use for a game that is essentially just an interactive menu?
Most game engines can do this but their UI systems tend to not be as flexible or usable as CSS/HTML when it comes to layout techniques, and are nowhere near as well documented. Add to this the free availability of libraries such as React, Greensock and D3 alongside an unrivaled amount of documentation and tutorials and it's a strong option.

How AnimatePresence in framer-motion works
P.s. while reading the implementation of AnimatePresence, I've noticed a bug which caused some components to not exit in sequence. The PR for fixing this has been submitted and is awaiting review.
The two most popular choices now (circa Jan 2024) are React Transition Group, started in 2016, and Framer Motion, started in 2018. I'm not too familiar with the former, so this article solely dives into the workings of AnimatePresence from Framer Motion and how it's able to enable exit animations.

"react-next-tilt" and "react-flip-tilt" NPM Packages
At this point, I was already using a tilt component (react-parallax-tilt) in my portfolio, and after checking this page I had the general idea of how it should be done, a container with transform-style: preserve-3d, with two children, one tilt and the other an image, both having backface-visibility: hidden and the tilt being rotated to face backward at the start. For the animation, I decided to use framer-motion because I was already familiar with it and knew it had what was needed to get the job done (and I'm glad I did because later I needed to await the animation and it was easy with framer-motion).
