OpenGraph card

A sharp interaction-design essay from Motion Magazine showing that missed hover states are the same class of problem as collision tunnelling in games. The fix is to test the pointer's path between frames instead of sampling isolated points, which is a very you kind of insight: import an older systems concept and suddenly a UI detail feels exact instead of approximate.

Motion is still the cleanest high-level pitch for modern UI animation infrastructure: hardware-accelerated browser APIs when possible, JavaScript fallbacks when needed, and an API surface that spans gestures, layout, scroll, and orchestrated transitions without feeling bolted together. The practical value is less the library itself than the model of animation as a first-class systems layer.

An open source text-to-Lottie workflow aimed at generating production-ready motion assets through Codex or Claude Code. The interesting part is not novelty text-to-X hype, but that it narrows animation generation into a constrained, editable output format that designers and engineers can actually ship.

A concrete example of using Emil Kowalski-style design-engineering heuristics to fix motion feel in drag-and-drop UI. The screenshot's core idea is sequencing the drop so pickup stays instant, the card shrinks back with a short transform-only animation, and the position snap happens almost instantly after that instead of fighting the library's default transition.

A polished installable skill for generating text-animation specs across Remotion, GSAP, Motion, WAAPI, and similar stacks. It’s effectively prompt infrastructure for getting pacing, curves, sequencing, and styling details specified cleanly instead of hand-waving them.

OpenGraph card

A concise glossary of animation patterns so you can ask for motion more precisely. Useful reference for turning vague “make it feel better” feedback into concrete direction.

A small tool for animating code snippets into reels. Good fit if you want lightweight developer-marketing assets or more engaging demo clips without editing video by hand.
