React GSAP animations often break when using `gsap.from()` due to initial state issues. Using `gsap.set()` to establish the starting state before applying `gsap.to()` prevents visual glitches and ensures reliable animation initiation within the component lifecycle.

To properly clean up React animations in `useEffect`, you must return a cleanup function that kills GSAP tweens or removes Framer Motion listeners. This prevents memory leaks and lifecycle conflicts during component unmounting or StrictMode double-rendering.

The best way to trigger scroll-based React animations is using GSAP ScrollTrigger or Framer Motion's `useInView` hook. These patterns ensure animations execute precisely when elements enter the viewport, correctly scoped within `useEffect` for optimal lifecycle management.

Yes, you can use Framer Motion for scroll-triggered effects without SSR crashes by following declarative animation patterns. Correct placement within `useEffect` and utilizing hooks like `useInView` ensure compatibility with server-side rendering and StrictMode environments.

Orchestrating React animations requires specific lifecycle patterns for StrictMode compatibility. Correct placement within `useEffect` and proper cleanup of GSAP contexts or Framer Motion instances are essential to handle double-invocation behaviors without visual glitches.
