Framer Motion Animation Principles

Implement all 12 Disney animation principles using Framer Motion's declarative React API.

1. Squash and Stretch


<motion.div
  animate={{ scaleX: [1, 1.2, 1], scaleY: [1, 0.8, 1] }}
  transition={{ duration: 0.3, times: [0, 0.5, 1] }}
/>

2. Anticipation


<motion.div
  variants={{
    idle: { y: 0, scaleY: 1 },
    anticipate: { y: 10, scaleY: 0.9 },
    jump: { y: -200 }
  }}
  initial="idle"
  animate={["anticipate", "jump"]}
  transition={{ duration: 0.5, times: [0, 0.2, 1] }}
/>

3. Staging


<motion.div animate={{ filter: "blur(3px)", opacity: 0.6 }} /> {/* bg */}
<motion.div animate={{ scale: 1.1, zIndex: 10 }} /> {/* hero */}

4. Straight Ahead / Pose to Pose


<motion.div
  animate={{
    x: [0, 100, 200, 300],
    y: [0, -50, 0, -30]
  }}
  transition={{ duration: 1, ease: "easeInOut" }}
/>

5. Follow Through and Overlapping Action


<motion.div animate={{ x: 200 }} transition={{ duration: 0.5 }}>
  <motion.span
    animate={{ x: 200 }}
    transition={{ duration: 0.5, delay: 0.05 }} // hair
  />
  <motion.span
    animate={{ x: 200 }}
    transition={{ duration: 0.6, delay: 0.1 }} // cape
  />
</motion.div>

6. Slow In and Slow Out


<motion.div
  animate={{ x: 300 }}
  transition={{
    duration: 0.6,
    ease: [0.42, 0, 0.58, 1] // easeInOut cubic-bezier
  }}
/>
// Or use: "easeIn", "easeOut", "easeInOut"

7. Arc


<motion.div
  animate={{
    x: [0, 100, 200],
    y: [0, -100, 0]
  }}
  transition={{ duration: 1, ease: "easeInOut" }}
/>

8. Secondary Action


<motion.button
  whileHover={{ scale: 1.05 }}
  whileTap={{ scale: 0.95 }}
>
  <motion.span
    animate={{ rotate: [0, 10, -10, 0] }}
    transition={{ duration: 0.3 }}
  >
    Icon
  </motion.span>
</motion.button>

9. Timing


const timings = {
  fast: { duration: 0.15 },
  normal: { duration: 0.3 },
  slow: { duration: 0.6 },
  spring: { type: "spring", stiffness: 300, damping: 20 }
};

10. Exaggeration


<motion.div
  animate={{ scale: 1.5, rotate: 720 }}
  transition={{
    type: "spring",
    stiffness: 200,
    damping: 10 // low damping = overshoot
  }}
/>

11. Solid Drawing


<motion.div
  style={{ perspective: 1000 }}
  animate={{ rotateX: 45, rotateY: 30 }}
  transition={{ duration: 0.5 }}
/>

12. Appeal


<motion.div
  whileHover={{
    scale: 1.02,
    boxShadow: "0 20px 40px rgba(0,0,0,0.2)"
  }}
  transition={{ duration: 0.3 }}
/>

Stagger Children


const container = {
  hidden: { opacity: 0 },
  show: {
    opacity: 1,
    transition: { staggerChildren: 0.1 }
  }
};

<motion.ul variants={container} initial="hidden" animate="show">
  {items.map(item => <motion.li variants={itemVariant} />)}
</motion.ul>

Score breakdown

Trigger
4.5
One-line description narrowly scoped to Disney principles; misses generic framer-motion or React animation triggers, no when-not.
Structure
6.7
Single 179-line file, no redundancy, but no structure beyond numbered snippets.
Workflow
3.6
Snippet catalog only: no task steps, no freedom calibration, no error handling or verification.
Content
6.0
Code fragments mostly runnable but unexplained; minimal guidance text around them.
Engineering
9.0
Valid minimal frontmatter; no referenced paths or scripts to verify.
Security
10.0
No scripts, secrets, links, or injection; purely code examples.
A bare snippet catalog mapping Disney 12 principles to Framer Motion code. Trigger description is unusually narrow, and the body is 12 code fragments with almost no explanatory prose, no workflow, no install/version guidance, and no verification or error handling.
