SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a suite of utility functions for GSAP animations, simplifying complex operations like clamping, mapping ranges, and generating random values.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Clamping and Ranges: Clamp values between specified min and max, or map ranges from one scale to another.
  • Random and Snap: Generate random numbers or snap values to a specific increment or array of values.
  • Units and Parsing: Get units from values, append units to numbers, and split color values.
  • Arrays and Collections: Convert values to arrays, compose functions, and wrap values in a range for infinite scrolling.
  • Use Case: Enhance your GSAP animations by using these utilities to create smooth transitions, random effects, and accurate mapping of values.

Quick Start

Use the gsap-utils skill to clamp a value between 0 and 100: gsap.utils.clamp(0, 100, value).

FAQPage Schema
How do I clamp values between a minimum and maximum for GSAP animations?

To clamp values for GSAP animations, you can use the utility function to restrict a given number so it does not fall below the specified minimum or exceed the maximum. This ensures your animation properties stay within bounds.

Can I map a range of values to a different scale when building web animations?

Yes, you can map ranges from one scale to another using a dedicated GSAP utility function. This allows you to translate input values proportionally into a new target range for precise animation control.

What is the best way to generate random numbers for dynamic GSAP effects?

The best way to generate random numbers for dynamic GSAP effects is using the built-in randomization utility function. It simplifies creating varied animations by producing random values within a defined range or snapping them to specific increments.

How do I parse units or split color values for web animation development?

You can parse units or split color values using specific utility functions designed for GSAP animations. These functions extract units from existing values, append units to raw numbers, and divide color values for accurate styling.

Does GSAP have a utility to wrap values in a range for infinite scrolling?

Yes, GSAP utility functions include a wrapping feature that places values in a continuous range. This is specifically useful for creating infinite scrolling effects where returning values seamlessly loop back to the start.
