This repo houses the JavaScript implementation of Material Motion. For more information about the project as a whole, check the Starmap.

• To enable the motions and gestures described in the Material Spec to be easily implemented by application authors in the JS ecosystem.

• To make prototyping new animated experiences simpler.

• To allow authors to write views in terms of URLs, and have the system guide the transitions between them.

• To yield a system that feels robust by default. Fragile transitions erode user trust in the overall system: “should I enter my password in a glitchy app?”

This repo houses all the packages that comprise the Material Motion implementation for JavaScript. They are available in packages:

• core houses the core implementation of Material Motion; including MotionObservable, MotionRuntime, and ReactiveProperty. To use it in an application, you'll also need an adapter such as material-motion-views-react or material-motion-views-react. This package is published on NPM as material-motion.

• springs-rebound houses the adapter that enables Material Motion interactions to make use of Rebound.js springs.

• views-dom houses the adapter that supports using Material Motion in the DOM with connectInteractionToElements().

• views-react houses the adapter that supports using Material Motion in React with createMotionComponent().
