SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill documents and explains GSAP's utility helpers to remove repetitive math and DOM handling when building animations, making it easy to map, normalize, snap, randomize, and transform values reliably.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Range mapping & normalization: mapRange and normalize convert values between domains for scroll-driven or progress-based animations.
  • Clamping, wrapping, and snapping: clamp, wrap, wrapYoyo, and snap constrain or cycle values for loops, grids, and step-based animations.
  • Randomization and distribution: random, shuffle, and distribute produce varied values and staggered assignments for lively motion.
  • Collection and parsing helpers: toArray, selector, getUnit, unitize, splitColor, pipe, and interpolate assist with DOM targeting, unit handling, color interpolation, and composing transforms.
  • Use Case: Convert scroll progress to a rotation value, clamp it to safe bounds, snap to a grid, and distribute different offsets across targets for a staggered effect.

Quick Start

Use gsap.utils.mapRange to convert scroll progress from 0–1 to 0–360 degrees, then apply gsap.utils.clamp and gsap.utils.snap before assigning the values to your tween.

Frequently Asked Questions about gsap-utils

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I map scroll progress to a rotation value in GSAP?▼

To map scroll progress to a rotation value in GSAP, use gsap.utils.mapRange to convert a 0–1 progress value into a target range like 0–360 degrees, then apply the result directly inside ScrollTrigger callbacks.

What is the best way to constrain animation values within safe bounds?▼

The best way to constrain animation values within safe bounds is using gsap.utils.clamp, which restricts any given number so it does not exceed your defined minimum or maximum limits during value transforms.

How do I snap animated values to a grid using GSAP?▼

To snap animated values to a grid using GSAP, use gsap.utils.snap to force numeric values to the nearest increment or specific step array, ensuring values align cleanly with grid-based animations.

Can I randomize and distribute stagger offsets across multiple targets?▼

Yes, you can randomize and distribute stagger offsets across multiple targets by using gsap.utils.random and gsap.utils.distribute to generate varied values and assign staggered offsets for dynamic motion effects.

Does GSAP provide helpers for normalizing ranges and interpolating colors?▼

GSAP provides utility helpers for normalizing ranges with gsap.utils.normalize and interpolating colors with gsap.utils.splitColor, allowing precise value mapping and color manipulation for complex animation workflows.
