Frequently Asked Questions

Why use CSS animations instead of JavaScript animations?

CSS animations run on the browser's compositor thread, delivering smoother 60fps performance without blocking the main JavaScript thread.

What is cubic-bezier easing?

Cubic-bezier curves allow custom acceleration and deceleration curves for more natural, springy motion.
