Description
EaseMotion CSS provides a wide range of reusable motion utilities, but there is currently no documentation that helps developers systematically choose the most appropriate animation pattern for different interface scenarios.
Developers often face multiple valid animation choices for the same interaction, such as fade, slide, scale, stagger, or sequential transitions. Without a structured decision framework, teams may apply inconsistent motion patterns across applications.
A Motion Decision Matrix would document how to evaluate common UI scenarios and select motion patterns based on usability, accessibility, performance, and user expectations.
Why is this valuable?
- Encourages consistent motion decisions.
- Reduces arbitrary animation choices.
- Improves design system consistency.
- Supports scalable motion architecture.
- Expands the documentation collection with decision-support guidance.
Proposed Idea
Create a standalone documentation submission including:
- Motion decision matrix
- Common UI scenarios
- Pattern comparison
- Selection criteria
- Recommended approaches
- Practical examples
Acceptance Criteria
Added under submissions/docs/
Contains only:
README.md
Documentation only.
