GSAP Editor

The GSAP Editor provides a browser-based workspace to author, run, and preview GSAP animations without local setup. It supports standard tweens and timelines, essential helpers like labels and stagger, and a live preview surface that reflects code changes instantly. Users can paste snippets or write from scratch, execute the code, and observe the resulting DOM or canvas animation. It targets frontend developers, motion designers, and students who want rapid feedback. Most use cases include prototyping micro-interactions, testing timing relationships, and teaching GSAP concepts.\n
\nConceptually, the tool loads a minimal sandboxed environment with GSAP and optional plugins, then evaluates the user script against a mock container. Internally, it tracks timeline state, duration, and playback controls; it validates API usage and surfaces syntax or runtime errors with line references. Core features include a code editor, real-time timeline visualization, a safe execution sandbox, and export options for sharing or embedding. Advanced users can enable plugins such as ScrollTrigger, snapshot export, and versioned presets for consistent results.\n
\nBenefits include faster iteration, reduced setup time, and a portable playground that aligns with production code. Typical workflows involve writing a snippet, running it, adjusting durations and easings, then exporting the final snippet for integration. The tool emphasizes correctness of timings, browser compatibility, and clear error diagnostics to speed debugging. Use cases span onboarding new developers, teaching animation timing, and validating complex sequences for demos, code reviews, or client demonstrations.
