This project demonstrates how to integrate GSAP (GreenSock Animation Platform) with React to create smooth, high-performance animations.
GSAP is a powerful JavaScript animation library used for building highly performant and visually appealing animations. It works with DOM elements, CSS properties, SVG, Canvas, and more.
GSAP is widely used in web development for interactive UIs and complex motion graphics.
While React excels at managing UI state and structure, it doesn’t handle complex animations well on its own. GSAP bridges that gap by giving you fine-grained control over animations.
Benefits:
- GPU-accelerated, buttery smooth animations
- Sequencing and timelines with
gsap.timeline() - Advanced easing
- SVG support
- Scroll-based animations (with plugins like
ScrollTrigger)
