The landing page is amazing!

The only issue I found with it was when checking the responsive layout example, I tried to resize my browser window and then the scroll was reset to top :(

This is the first time I haven’t hated scroll hijacking. That was actually really smooth.

Part of why it is less offensive is it's not actually hijacking our scrolling: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43572887

Scroll hijacking is when I try to scroll normally but the page overrides my distance and velocity.

Handling resize is a different beast than being responsive. Working for every viewport dimension under the sun is not the same thing as gracefully handling an animation while the viewport size changes - the latter is much more challenging.

How does it compare to Motion ?

That's what I came here to ask too. This looks wonderful, but I'm already using Motion quite a bit. I'm also using React and am unsure how well Anime.js pairs with that while Motion has a first party react library.

In any case, like everyone else here, I'm very impressed with OP's site and documentation. Very slick!

The first page in the documentation, Getting Started, gives a React sample: https://animejs.com/documentation/getting-started/using-with...

Scrolling through that landing page felt a lot smoother & snappier than I would've expected for a page looking like that.

It's clever, but honestly I don't care how smooth it is. Scrolling should simply scroll a view up or down a page. Not invoke animation. We already have established UX patterns for playing media, slowing it down, speeding it up, randomly seeking through it.

False. Let the web be fun again
