EASY React Animation with useGSAP()

[@paakofibamfoquaicoe4193]

Your laughing and smiling throughout the video makes me happy. Great video. Thank you.

[@shash0_0]

Clear, succinct and comprehensive. Your calm energy is just cherry on top!

That's the affectionate and mildly manic smile all develop who have dared attempt complex GSAP animations in React 18 (because it's better to smile than to cry) 😂

Beautiful addition to Gsap React ecosystem, thank you team GSAP 👍✨

[@sirajahmed8034]

Wow! It always pained me how hard it was to use gsap with React, and I'm glad a proper hook was created that addresses all the issues. Very excited to use this, amazing work by GSAP team!

[@montoyland]

I love how you incorporated Brody into your presentation! It's a testament to your natural ability to go with the flow that, while appears so effortless, takes great skill. Your instructions were clear and speak to larger concerns all React developers should consider even beyond specifically using GSAP. Thanks for the obvious effort you took to show us best practices!

[@cassieevans604]

I just had to accept that Brody just pops by occasionally, even if I'm recording, I have no choice in the matter. If I try to lock him out of my office he howls until I let him in 😂

This is such a great channel. Love the production quality.

[@Michael-Martell]

Props to all your hard work, not only on this video, but on the documentation and the Starter examples on Stack blitz. It’s extremely helpful! I’ll be playing with it this week and I think I’ll be finally taking the leap into Paid GSAP after my next check! Thanks for all you do!

Oh this is so nice to hear, thanks for taking the time to leave such a nice message - pop into the forums if you have any feedback or need any help. 💚

[@snorklTV]

wow. fantastic job on the video! editing is crazy good. can't even imagine how long it took to put it all together and have it flow so well.

[@cassieevans604]

Means a lot Carl, thanks. I STILL messed up with an audio overlap at 7:40. I'm getting better though, it's a whole skill in itself, I have so much more respect for video creators now. Time consuming stuff. 😂

Amazing work here, seeing the react hook type syntax with GSAP in it on the thumbnail blew my mind. As always, excellent tutorial by Cassie and great documentation. Will definitely be using it soon enough !

[@jior6]

It should be illegal to use your guys' platform for free. I'm absolutely blown away how vastly superior GSAP compares to other animation solutions. Very well done.

You can thank Brody for that. It's really him who calls the shots.

[@shadowslayer2248]

Her smile is as beautiful as the easy integration of GSAP with React and smoothness by which GSAP controls and animates the DOM elements. Thank you instructor and mainly thank you developers for the useGSAP hook which makes it so easy, gimme a second to acknowledge your greatness 🙇‍♂🙇‍♂🙏🙏

Can we use it for react native expo or any advice except animated for expo?

[@Michael-Martell]

Btw, your stackblitz example for your Next13 Page transitions is not currently working… it’s failing at the start command.

[@Trazynn]

(I bet this comment will hit the spam filter because I mention Discord but i'll try it anway). In the Framer discord there's frequent questions on how to implement GSAP animations into Framer websites. Some short video showcasing how to do that would be quite valuable.

[@GreenSockLearning]

Thanks for the feedback - We're not really familiar with framer's GUI, but GSAP is just JS and can be added wherever you can add custom code.

[@absartb7789]

Thanks for the hook!, but what if i need to use matchMedia that already has context within it?

[@GreenSockLearning]

Hey there! Good question, you can use matchMedia inside useGSAP, useGSAP will revert the matchMedia context. codepen.io/GreenSock/pen/OJmQvLZ We'll add this to the docs!

[@shervangh9660]

tnx for your content

[@angry_moose94]

Hey nice library but it just seems like it’s a lot of work for animations that you can probably do with css. I mean even librairies like framer motion are probably gonna turn obsolete when the browsers can do it by themselves. Animations are nice but sometimes simplicity is better.

[@cassieevans604]

Not really accurate. The animations shown here were deliberately simple for demo purposes. But GSAP allows for a huge amount that just isn't possible using CSS or framer motion.

[@shableep]

GSAP provides a lot more control over your animations, especially nested animations that are also dependent on the change of values. If you're doing simpler animations, CSS is the way to go for sure. But GSAP is great for much more complex stuff when you need it.

can i use gsap in react native ?

[@JackDoyleGS]

Sure, I don't see why not. GSAP can animate anything that JavaScript can touch. I have zero experience with React Native personally, but I can't imagine why there'd be a problem.

[@veedjohnson]

@@JackDoyleGSthere will be a problem because GSap animates html elements. How is that going to work with native?

[@JackDoyleGS]

@@veedjohnson GSAP can animate literally anything that JavaScript can touch - not just DOM elements.

[@veedjohnson]

@@JackDoyleGS might give it a shot can you explain how it will work with the class name references used in the video? Given that react native does not use classes for it's elements

[@JackDoyleGS]

@@veedjohnson I have no knowledge of React Native, sorry. But you can target literally any object that JavaScript can touch, even a generic object like {x: 100}. If you're not dealing with DOM elements, then you wouldn't use selector text for your target - you'd reference the objects themselves whose properties you're animating.

[@linorabolini]

Its so sad that React is so toxic at this point that we need adapters for everything. React is ruining what programming means and its ruining developers overall. Get out of react, try solidJS and be free. edit: I recommend SolidJS here because it is almost 1:1 to react, but without many of the bad parts of React.

[@adeleke5140]

Could you explain what you mean by toxic?

[@linorabolini]

@@adeleke5140 yes ! what I mean by toxic is that React as a library is contaminating everything what was built up to now. If you want to use a 3rd party code, you need to "Reactify" it. The community is great, don't take me wrong, but it has gone too far to my taste. Really simple things became difficult, and the quality of our apps has been getting directly affected by it. The need of a special hook to make greensock would be an example. State management in react is another jungle we could talk about, a new library comes out every week. Hope this helps clarify my opinion :)

[@gcash49]

skill issue

[@JEsterCW]

@@linorabolini lol, from the way how react works its a framework, not library. I would rather pick vue/angular/svelte than solid. Hooks are just wrappers or additional abstraction(function) to make us more productive or comfortable (DX). State management in react is really fine since its hella open. The real problem is using old problematic ass tech like redux, mui or other piece of sheet instead of zustand,ss or just loaders per route. The quality of our app depends on ourselves(always) cuz of architecture and code quality, tool is only a tool it doesnt makes mess for no reason and if do youre using a wrong tool or u hit its limits.

[@linorabolini]

@@gcash49 no, is not that. i have been working with react for the last 7 years. Or more actually. I thought it was the way to go, but i realized how much damage it made recently
