react-material-admin VS react-motion

Template, starter kit, theme, boilerplate – these are the words with a very similar meaning – a set of files and folders that serve as a starting point for an application. There are various examples, such as free templates on Github like create-react-app or react-material-admin, ThemeForest with lots of WordPress themes, Template Monster, Creative-Tim and Flatlogic with premium react, angular, vue templates, and other resources that specialize in web templates, and so on. Flatlogic alone sold at least 20,000 licenses since its launch in 2013. Metronic has more than 100,000 sales. The number of usages of free templates is even higher and is doubtly countable. How many users use create-react-app on a daily basis?

Demo GitHub Price: $149

Rating: 1k stars on GitHub for a limited free version of the template

Take a look at this: https://github.com/flatlogic/react-material-admin. In my opinion, the best admin dashboard under the MIT license. If someone has something better, share the link please.

React-Motion is an animation toolkit that makes building and implementing realistic animations much easier. However, React-Motion can be hard to grasp for beginners. But it has good documentation with rich examples to help developers.

React Motion is an animation library for React applications that makes realistic animations easier to build and implement.

Here's a comparison showing how the transition-hook bundle size compares to other React animation libraries: react-spring, framer-motion, react-motion, and react-move:

Framer Motion is a production ready animation library for React. I felt the need to add some "cool" animations to my portfolio so that it looks more alive and interactive. One can argue between choosing React Spring or React Motion but that depends on the use-case and since I've already worked with Framer motion before so I went with this.

Thanks. Let me write some information concerning our ClojureScript frontend. We wanted to use physics-based animations using springs since only these animations make sense. Sadly the browser decided to only support silly animations which are described in terms of curves and durations. Spring animations are used on both MacOS and iOS and they look much better, since they have the natural feeling. Originally, we were using React Motion for them which would be fine for a small project. But running a lot of animations at the same time is very taxing since every frame of the animation has to go through React and all these layers. Therefore, I spent about 4 months completely rewriting most of our frontend code related to rendering and UI interactions within OrgPage. Unlike React Motion and probably any other spring-based animation library, we do not simulate these springs but instead analytically solve their differential equations. (Luckily I have a strong background in math.) I created the OrgPage https://orgpad.com/s/yRyR-GOU0Pm which summarizes math and my approach. Our animations code consists of about 5k lines of code where maybe 1k is the physics itself and computation of animation maps. The remaining 4k lines are low level controls where particular OrgPage elements are animated using requestAnimationFrame. We always calculate their new positions/sizes/etc. and apply DOM mutations, completely bypassing React, Reagent and Re-frame. There are a lot of clever optimizations to get the current speed. In upcoming months, I plan to investigate WebGL rendering which we could use to render larger parts of the documents, hopefully making everything even faster.
