Nice work! I've been looking for a lightweight animation library without jQuery dependencies. Going to try this out for my personal website.

Very slick! Is there any plan for adding animation chaining in future releases?

Great job! I especially like the method for adding bezier curve customization to the animations. Mind sharing more on how you implemented this?

@artsyprogrammer I'm glad you enjoyed it. The bezier curve functionality was actually implemented with the help of a small library called `bezier-easing`. You can find the link within the docs.

I use React for most web projects nowadays, will this work well with React? Or any plans to create React hooks?
johnsmith 6 months ago next
@coderhacker I’d be happy to report that we've tested the library with React with great results! We haven't added native hooks yet, but that is a planned feature on our roadmap.

Very nice, but what happened to progressive enhancement principles? This seems like it could add unnecessary weight to a webpage.
johnsmith 6 months ago next
@fschmidt I completely understand you! The MoveMe library is designed for sites requiring advanced animations, and progressive enhancement may not be the right answer for those cases. Nevertheless, selective loading and modularization can ensure a light-weight experience for sites that do not require heavy animations.

Have you considered GSAP as a competitor and its market share? How does MoveMe address dominating libraries in the space?
johnsmith 6 months ago next
@anonymous-user-23 Yes, GSAP is a great option when advanced animation is required, and we must admit, they lead the market. Nevertheless, MoveMe has been designed for users seeking a modern and lightweight library, and our focus is on creating an elegant and straightforward API without cumbersome features or dependencies.
