Define motion principles, timing, accessibility, performance, and test

Purposeful, minimal, and data-respectful motion. Support comprehension (e.g., sorting, filtering), not decoration. Provide context and continuity.

Use 150–300ms for UI transitions; longer (400–600ms) for large view changes. Prefer ease-out or custom bezier for natural feel; avoid bounce for data UIs.

Micro-interactions: button hover/focus/press, toggles, tabs.

State changes: loading → loaded, skeletons, success/error toasts.

Data visuals: animated draws with limits; allow pause/skip.

Navigation: smooth but brief transitions; avoid disorienting parallax.

Accessibility & Preferences

Honor prefers-reduced-motion: disable non-essential animations; provide instant alternatives. Avoid flashing; respect seizure safety thresholds.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best approach to animating changes in visual properties?

Prioritize using transform and opacity properties over layout-affecting ones. Keep keyframes minimal, throttle animations off-screen to improve performance, and thoroughly test on a range of mid-range mobile devices.

How should I ensure smooth animation playback across different devices?

Verify that all motion is rendered at 60 frames per second (fps) on target devices. Confirm that reduced-motion mode is functioning correctly, and ensure focus visibility during transitions; validate screen reader announcements are not delayed.
