How do I prevent GSAP context issues in Next.js server-side rendering?

To prevent GSAP context issues in Next.js server-side rendering, apply scoped contextual animations that avoid SSR conflicts by isolating animations within the component lifecycle.

What is the best way to scope GSAP animations to a specific React component?

The best way to scope GSAP animations to a specific React component is using contextual animation features that bind animations locally, preventing them from leaking into the global scope.

Do I need to install GSAP and @gsap/react to animate React components?

Yes, you need to install GSAP and @gsap/react as dependencies to execute animations within your React application using this setup.

Why does my GSAP animation break when unmounting React components?

GSAP animations break when unmounting React components due to improper lifecycle cleanup; using the useGSAP hook automatically handles this teardown to prevent memory leaks.
