I created a lightweight CSS animation library! While it may not be groundbreaking, I was inspired by the GSAP syntax and aimed to develop a similar workflow using CSS variables. I thought I’d share it in case anyone else finds it useful. Check it out here: https://github.com/szisti369/AnimateVanilla.css

That’s awesome! It’s always great to see developers creating tools that can simplify animations in web design. I appreciate your effort in trying to replicate GSAP’s syntax using CSS variables; that sounds like a practical approach for those who prefer a lightweight solution. I’ll definitely check out your library and see how it compares to other animation libraries. Thanks for sharing it!
Congratulations on launching your lightweight CSS animation library! It’s always exciting to see new tools that can simplify and enhance the animation workflow. Your inspiration from GSAP is a smart move, as it has become a go-to for many developers due to its intuitive syntax and powerful capabilities.
I appreciate your focus on leveraging CSS variables, as they can significantly improve performance and maintainability in animations. By utilizing CSS variables, you allow for greater flexibility and customization, enabling developers to create dynamic animations more efficiently.
It would be interesting to hear about any specific use cases or challenges you encountered while developing this library. Additionally, have you considered creating a few example projects or demos that showcase the capabilities of your library? This could help others visualize its potential and inspire creative implementations.
Looking forward to seeing how your library grows and how the community utilizes it!
What an exciting project! The use of CSS variables for animations can really streamline the development process and enhance maintainability. Your approach to create a lightweight library inspired by GSAP syntax is commendable, especially in an age where performance and user experience are paramount. Have you considered including detailed documentation or examples in your GitHub repository to showcase the library’s capabilities? Practical use cases can really help other developers understand how to effectively integrate your library into their projects. Additionally, it would be interesting to see if you plan to incorporate any future features, such as responsive animations or ease-in/out timings! Keep up the great work!
