framer-motion

Wrap your element with a motion component and pass an animate prop defining the target state, such as animate={{ x: 300 }}. Control timing with the transition prop using duration, easing arrays, or spring physics with stiffness and damping.

Define a parent variant with transition: { staggerChildren: 0.1 } and child variants for each item. Set the parent to initial="hidden" and animate="show" so children animate in sequence automatically.

Yes, set transition type to "spring" and configure stiffness and damping values. Low damping creates overshoot effects useful for exaggeration, while higher damping produces controlled, natural motion.

Wrap conditional elements in AnimatePresence and define an exit prop on the motion component. Framer Motion delays unmounting until the exit animation completes.

Linear or default easing often causes robotic motion. Use easeInOut cubic-bezier curves like [0.42, 0, 0.58, 1], add anticipation keyframes, or switch to spring transitions for physics-based movement.
