Top 23 JavaScript Animation Projects

  • anime.js

    JavaScript animation engine

    Project mention: How do developers create stunning animations on text and elements like this? | reddit.com/r/howdidtheycodeit | 2023-05-24

    To your original question though, there are lots of ways to achieve these types of animations and the best solution is dependent on your requirements and experience. I suggest looking into css animations and anime.js. If you're looking to do more complex animations, a tool like lottie might be a better fit.

  • Awesome-Design-Tools

    The best design tools and plugins for everything 👉

    Project mention: Suggestions for new Awesome Design Tools | reddit.com/r/DigitalArt | 2023-04-12

    I'm a big fan of curated lists and resources, and a great example of that is GitHub's awesome lists but I've noticed there seems to be a lack of any art focused that isn't specific to one software (such as Awesome Blender) or that are actively maintained, the closest being https://github.com/goabstract/Awesome-Design-Tools, which, although still quite helpful today, hasn't been updated in 3 or 4 years since Flawless Apps joined the Abstract team, so contains many broken links and there are plenty of new and useful options that aren't there. So I'm going to remake it over the next weekend and keep it regularly updated so any help with finding links to software, plugins, hardware, websites, learning materials and anything else you think might be relevant, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Project mention: Animations for a component inside NativeBase Actionsheet are not animating correctly | reddit.com/r/reactnative | 2023-04-26

    As you can see in this image, when you change datasets for this line chart, it animates the line graph as it changes it. You can clearly see its a nice and fluid movement. This is exactly how it works for me on a normal blank screen.
