Not working on Firefox Nightly.

While I understand the argument for keeping the library "untranspiled," you may want to reconsider using this version in the examples. Ideally, examples should work in the average browser. JMHO.

Out of curisoity, what would your library provide over the web animations api.

Spring physics, frame-based callbacks (see the `change()` examples), functions as values for duration, delay and any property you animate, making staggered animations easy to create, etc.

Where do you use spring physics? Is it just for translations, or do you actually deform objects using mass-spring networks?

A pedantic note - your library provides sinusoidal easing, not spring physics.

For those not in the know, this was posted/created by Benjamin De Cock who is responsible for many of Stripe's marketing site animations. Cool to see this here :)

I agree. I use Edge, and the only thing I see is a white page. That gives me a bad impression and I'm already not interested anymore.

None of the examples work in Safari/iOS, despite it self advertising as "well suitable for the mobile web".

Straightforward documentation. Nice API. Small size. Good performance. I think I might use this. Thanks!
