Solid Layout Motion

Overview

Solid Layout Motion is an intriguing testbed designed to explore the realm of layout animations, inspired by the functionality found in libraries like Framer Motion. This project pushes the boundaries of what can be achieved with animations in your applications, presenting a unique opportunity for developers to experiment with various tweening effects. With a focus on demonstrating proof-of-concept animations, it opens up possibilities for shared layout transitions in a straightforward manner.

By utilizing the motion library under the hood, Solid Layout Motion serves as a foundation for creating engaging UI animations using just JavaScript. Although it currently lacks comprehensive documentation for SolidJS and VanillaJS, the results are promising for developers interested in further refining their animation capabilities. Whether you’re a seasoned coder or just starting out, the insights and experiments shared in this project set the stage for creative expression through dynamic layouts.
