SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

React apps often struggle to deliver smooth, native-feeling UI transitions without third-party libraries. This skill provides a structured approach using the View Transition API, including the <ViewTransition> component, addTransitionType, and CSS view transition classes to unify transitions across navigations, suspense reveals, and shared element morphs.

Core Features & Use Cases

<ViewTransition> component with enter/exit/update/share triggers and proper placement rules
addTransitionType for directional/contextual animations
Shared element transitions to morph between views
Suspense reveals with separate transitions
Next.js integration and CSS recipes for quick adoption
Accessibility considerations and reduced motion support

Quick Start

Install the skill and begin wrapping navigations with ViewTransition components and use addTransitionType to label directional transitions for pages and components.

FAQPage Schema

How do I add native view transitions to React components without external animation libraries?▼

You can implement native view transitions in React by leveraging the View Transition API through a dedicated <ViewTransition> component. This approach uses built-in browser capabilities with CSS view transition classes to handle enter, exit, update, and share triggers without third-party dependencies.

Does the View Transition API work with Next.js route transitions?▼

Yes, the View Transition API works with Next.js route transitions. This skill provides specific Next.js integration patterns that apply the <ViewTransition> component and addTransitionType to label directional page navigations across modern React applications.

How do I animate shared element morphs between views during list reorders?▼

To animate shared element morphs during list reorders, you use the share trigger within the <ViewTransition> component. This mechanism captures the outgoing and incoming element states, allowing CSS to smoothly morph shared elements between distinct views.

Can I apply separate view transitions for Suspense reveals in React?▼

Yes, you can apply separate view transitions for Suspense reveals. The skill enables distinct transition configurations for Suspense boundaries, ensuring asynchronous content loading displays smooth enter and update animations when data resolves.

How do I add directional labels to page and component transitions?▼

You add directional labels to page and component transitions using the addTransitionType function. This attaches contextual and directional metadata to the active view transition, allowing CSS to target and animate specific navigation paths or component state changes.

Are accessibility considerations supported for React view transitions?▼

Yes, accessibility considerations are supported for React view transitions. The skill includes reduced motion support, ensuring users with motion sensitivities experience appropriate fallbacks when the View Transition API triggers navigations or component updates.
