three.js
JavaScript 3D library
three.js is a lightweight and easy-to-use JavaScript 3D library with its own default WebGL renderer. It works by creating a scene with a camera and a geometric cube, the latter of which is added to the scene. This will become the animated object within the scene. A WebGL renderer is created for the scene and the camera, with an added viewport to the document.body element. Finally, the cube is animated within the scene for the camera. A plethora of examples can be found in the project’s website (https://threejs.org/) which use Canvas 2D, SVG and CSS3D renderers that the library also provides. -

CSS Inspiration
Curated collection of interesting, creative, or inspiring CSS effects
CSS-Inspiration is a living gallery of modern CSS effects and components that highlights what’s possible with pure CSS and minimal markup. The collection ranges from micro-interactions and loaders to 3D transforms, complex backgrounds, hover states, and text effects, each presented as a small, self-contained demo. Source code is front and center, encouraging developers to study, copy, and tweak snippets for their own projects. Many examples lean on contemporary features—custom properties, filters, blend modes, gradients, and keyframes—serving as both inspiration and a practical cookbook. Because each demo focuses on a single idea, it’s an effective way to learn new techniques without wading through a full framework.

Effeckt.css
A Performant Transitions and Animations Library
Effeckt.css is a showcase and toolkit of high-performance UI transitions and animations for the web. It catalogs common interaction patterns—button states, list reveals, modals, off-canvas menus, and page transitions—implemented with CSS transforms and opacity for smooth, GPU-friendly motion. The project focuses on practical details such as using compositing-friendly properties, keeping DOM structures lean, and providing hooks so JavaScript can toggle classes without micromanaging animation state. Each effect is isolated, documented, and demoed, allowing designers to copy just what they need rather than dragging in a monolithic framework. By standardizing names and behaviors, it helps teams keep motion design consistent across a product while remaining easy to theme. The library doubled as a learning resource during the rise of CSS animations, showing how to achieve polished interactions without heavy JavaScript. -

Typed.js
A JavaScript typing animation library
Typed.js is a library that types. Enter in any string, and watch it type at the speed you've set, backspace what it's typed, and begin a new sentence for however many strings you've set. Rather than using the strings array to insert strings, you can place an HTML div on the page and read from it. This allows bots and search engines, as well as users with JavaScript disabled, to see your text on the page. You can pause in the middle of a string for a given amount of time by including an escape character. CSS animations are built upon initialization in JavaScript. But, you can customize them at your will! -

CSS Loaders
A collection of loading spinners animated with CSS
css-loaders is a collection of simple, reusable loading spinners and indicators implemented entirely in CSS. The project offers a variety of designs—spinning circles, bouncing dots, bars, and pulse animations—that can be applied to any element with a few classes. Each loader is built using CSS keyframes and transforms, avoiding images or JavaScript, which keeps them lightweight and responsive. Because they are pure CSS, they scale cleanly at different sizes and can be styled easily with color or shadow overrides. Developers can copy snippets directly into their projects without needing to install heavy dependencies. These loaders are widely used in web apps and prototypes to communicate background activity or waiting states to users in a visually pleasing way. -

Loaders.css
Delightful, performance-focused pure css loading animations
loaders.css is a collection of pure CSS loading animations designed to drop into any web project without JavaScript or image assets. Each loader is built from simple HTML elements animated with CSS keyframes, transforms, and opacity to create spinners, pulses, bars, and geometric patterns. Because they’re vector-based and CSS-driven, the animations scale cleanly at any resolution and look sharp on high-DPI displays. The library emphasizes small, reusable snippets: you copy a minimal markup block, apply the provided class, and tweak size or color through CSS variables or overrides. Animations are crafted to be smooth and performant, relying on GPU-friendly properties to keep frame rates high even on mobile devices. The set covers common loading metaphors (pulsing dots, rotating squares, bouncing bars), giving designers a consistent visual language across a site while keeping bundle size tiny. -

Lottie-Web
Render After Effects animations natively
Lottie-Web renders vector animations exported from Adobe After Effects as lightweight JSON, playing them in the browser via SVG or Canvas. Animations remain crisp at any resolution, load quickly compared to videos or GIFs, and can be controlled programmatically for interactivity. The runtime supports playback options like loop, autoplay, segment control, and event hooks, making it easy to sync motion with UI state. Because animations are data rather than pixels, designers and developers can collaborate: designers export with the Bodymovin plugin, and developers integrate the JSON with minimal code. The renderer handles masks, shapes, and keyframe timing to closely mirror After Effects behavior within web constraints. This approach brings high-quality motion design to product interfaces without large asset sizes or complex sprite workflows. -

MilkDrop Anywhere
A remote control MilkDrop2 plugin for Windows
Allows you to easily remote control MilkDrop2 VJ Console in Winamp (Windows only) via graphic interface from any browser (via tablet or cellphone perhaps). You must have Apache2 (or any webserver) with PHP 5.4+ running on the same computer Winamp is running on and some basic knowledge of how that all works. Once you've got everything set up and running, it should run near flawlessly (I was using it for a few hours continuously once with no hiccups) There's a readme.txt file inside the zip file with some basic instructions. Check out the Wiki or Discussion tab for up to date instructions, info, and more... If anyone actually uses this, please let me know in the Discussion tab - I don't know if the interest would be that high this day and age but you never know... If you're a programmer, you could tweak this program as a template to remotely control anything you want (just give me some credit, I wrote it from scratch) Not a 100% easy setup, but anyone can do it! -

React Move
Beautiful, data-driven animations for React
The API for React Move has been essentially stable since the 2.0 version. The 4.0 version of React Move introduced a change that broke the hard dependency on d3-interpolate and introduced the interpolation prop. The current version of React Move will by default only do numeric interpolation and apply easing functions. If you only need to do numeric interpolation you don't need to do anything. Just upgrade and done. The API for React Move 5.x and 6.x is exactly the same. The 5.x version just includes react-lifecycles-compat to make the library work with earlier versions of React. This adds a little to the bundle so use 6.x if you're using React 16.3+. Before looking at the components it might be good to look at starting state. You are going to be asked to define starting states for each item in your NodeGroup and Animate components. This is a key concept and probably the most error prone for developers working with React Move. -

React Transition Group
Perform animations when a React component enters or leaves the DOM
Exposes simple components useful for defining entering and exiting transitions. React Transition Group is not an animation library like React-Motion, it does not animate styles by itself. Instead it exposes transition stages, manages classes and group elements and manipulates the DOM in useful ways, making the implementation of actual visual transitions much easier. Since react-transition-group is fairly small, the overhead of including the library in your application is negligible. However, in situations where it may be useful to benefit from an external CDN when bundling. A set of components for managing component states (including mounting and unmounting) over time, specifically designed with animation in mind. The Transition component lets you describe a transition from one component state to another over time with a simple declarative API. Most commonly it's used to animate the mounting and unmounting of a component. -

React-Motion
A spring that solves your counter animation problems
Animate a counter from 0 to 10. Works with React-Native v0.18+. A spring that solves your animation problems. You can develop simple transitions, chat heads, draggable balls, todoMVC list transition, photo gallery, spring parameters chooser, water ripples, and draggable lists. For 95% of use-cases of animating components, we don't have to resort to using hard-coded easing curves and duration. Set up a stiffness and damping for your UI element, and let the magic of physics take care of the rest. This way, you don't have to worry about petty situations such as interrupted animation behavior. It also greatly simplifies the API. It's normal not to feel how stiffness and damping affect your spring; use Spring Parameters Chooser to get a feeling.
