Visually explore various eases that are available in GSAP with this interactive tool.

There are some interesting (and surprising) performance implications of using CSS animations that aren't widely known. Check out this video demonstration.

Animating the rotation, scale, skew, and position of SVG elements via CSS has been completely impractical due to major browser inconsistencies...until now. GreenSock's CSSPlugin handles major bugs and inconsistencies across a wide range of modern browsers, making it easy for you to animate SVG elements exactly like regular DOM elements... even in IE.

Learn how to make a simple play / pause toggle button to control any GSAP animation (tweens or timelines). Same concepts apply to toggling the reversed() state of an animation too.

This QuickTip focuses on creating staggered animations on multiple objects with TweenMax's power methods staggerFrom() and staggerTo().

Responsive animation just got easier with GSAP 1.13.1 and support for percent-based translations. Plus enhanced support for RequireJS, AMD, Browserify and one less reason to use jQuery.

We're excited to announce several new features in the GreenSock Animation Platform (GSAP) 1.12.0 that will increase not only "real" performance, but "perceived" performance as well. The innovative lagSmoothing() feature allows GSAP to automatically heal from CPU spikes that cause lag, all while maintaining perfect synchronization between all animations. And the new "lazy" rendering helps avoid layout thrashing when many animations start simultaneously.

I'm going to take a deeper look into CSS Animations and how they fit (or don't fit) into a modern animator's workflow. You'll see exactly where some of the pain points are for a typical project and how they can bring your workflow to a grinding halt.

Why has GSAP become an industry standard for animation on the web? Here are a few of the practical, real-world reasons.

With the release of iOS 7, I was anticipating some big leaps forward in browser performance. What I found was quite surprising. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing? Here's a quick [and very casual] video showing what I discovered:
