Portfolio Website v5 — Animated Experience
Engineered with animation-first approach using GSAP (GreenSock Animation Platform) for timeline-based sequencing and ScrollTrigger plugin for scroll-driven animations. The architecture implements React with Framer Motion for declarative component animations, spring physics for natural motion, and gesture recognition for interactive elements. Built with the help of vibe coding for smooth animation workflows. The animation system utilizes CSS transforms and opacity for GPU-accelerated performance, will-change property for optimization hints, and requestAnimationFrame for synchronized updates. Layout animations leverage FLIP technique (First, Last, Invert, Play) for performant position transitions and shared element transitions between routes. The project implements Lottie for vector animations, particle systems using Canvas API, and parallax scrolling with CSS 3D transforms. Performance monitoring includes FPS tracking, animation profiling, and lazy animation loading for optimal user experience. This project was inspired by award-winning animated websites and motion design showcases from the GitHub community.
