Poor performance animation (no compositor, with very questionable monkey patch of awful.layout)
I wrote a wrapper for rubato to provide a similar API to replace c:geometry(geo).

Noob Questions about Customizing AwesomeWM (Tagging, Animations)
As far as compositing and animating, Awesome itself is NOT a compositor. You will need a separate compositor like picom for things like shadows, background blur, and true transparency. There are forks of picom that also implement window animations but I have not personally tried them. Simple animations can be implemented in Awesome with libraries like rubato or awestore but it's a fairly manual process of changing a window's x and/or y coordinates on a regular interval.
