Formerly Framer Motion. The default React animation library in 2026. Declarative, gesture support, layout animations, scroll, presence. ~31k stars and 3.6M weekly downloads. Trusted by Framer and Figm…
The industry standard for advanced web animation since forever. Framework-agnostic — works with React, Vue, vanilla JS, anywhere. Strongest tool for complex timelines, scroll-driven animation, and SVG…
Lightweight JavaScript animation engine. ~66k stars. Great for SVG and DOM animation without React-specific bindings. Smaller community than GSAP, but the API is approachable and the bundle is tiny.
