CSS Animations, transitions and motion UI
In this session, we'll be covering the current capabilities of native css animations and transitions. Additionally, we'll dig into how this can be made easier using CSS language extentions like SASS and dive deep into the css animation framework MotionUI.
MotionUI in an open source Sass library for creating CSS transitions and animations from ZURB. Originally integrated into Foundation for Apps, the code is now a standalone library. Motion UI includes more than two dozen built-in transition and animation classes that make prototyping easy. When you move to a production environment, the library gives you total control over how your effects work.
The core of the library is a set of powerful transition and animation Sass mixins, which give you complete control over the details of an effect, from what direction an element slides, to how far it spins, to how intensely it shakes. Motion UI also includes a large number of pre-made CSS classes to help you get going quickly.
The library was designed for use with the Foundation frameworks, but can be adapted to work with any framework's animation library, such as Angular or React.
