SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

GSAP users often need simple, reliable helpers for common tasks such as clamping values, mapping ranges, normalizing inputs, interpolating results, generating random values, snapping to steps, and converting colors, without duplicating code across tweens and callbacks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Clamping, mapping, and normalization: clamp, mapRange, and normalize to constrain or translate values in animations.
  • Interpolation and color utilities: interpolate and splitColor for color blending and value pairing.
  • Randomization and snapping: random and snap to add controlled variability or grid-aligned motion.
  • Arrays and selectors: toArray, selector, and distribute-style utilities to manage collections in GSAP-driven flows.
  • Use Case: streamline ScrollTrigger-driven animations by applying these utilities directly in tween vars and callbacks.

Quick Start

Try using gsap.utils.clamp to bound a value within a range.

FAQPage Schema
How do I clamp or map values within GSAP animations without duplicating code?

GSAP utility helpers provide clamp, mapRange, and normalize functions to constrain or translate values directly inside tween vars and callbacks. These pure functions prevent duplicated math logic across your GSAP animations and ScrollTrigger interactions.

What is the best way to interpolate colors and generate random values for GSAP tweens?

The best way to interpolate colors and generate random values for GSAP tweens is using utility helpers like interpolate, splitColor, and random. They provide controlled variability and color blending inline without needing separate animation libraries.

Can I use these GSAP utility helpers directly inside ScrollTrigger logic and callbacks?

Yes, you can use GSAP utility helpers directly inside ScrollTrigger logic and callbacks. They are non-registering, utility-first functions designed to operate inline within tween vars and timeline interactions seamlessly.

How do I manage arrays and selectors when building GSAP-driven animation flows?

To manage arrays and selectors in GSAP-driven flows, use utility helpers like toArray, selector, and distribute-style functions. These utilities handle collections efficiently, simplifying element targeting across complex tweens and timelines.

Why does my GSAP animation require snapping values to a grid during motion?

Your GSAP animation requires snapping values to a grid during motion to achieve grid-aligned motion. Using the snap utility helper ensures values lock to specific steps, preventing sub-pixel rendering issues and maintaining visual alignment.
