## What it is
A small TypeScript library that animates CSS Grid layout changes (grid-column, grid-row, grid-template-columns, gap) using performant transforms. You call wrapGrid on a grid container and it automatically transitions between layout states with configurable duration, easing, and stagger.

## Use cases
- animate css grid layout changes smoothly
- transition grid items when columns or rows change
- add staggered animations to a photo grid
- animate grid gap and template changes with better performance than css keyframes
- make a filterable grid animate item repositioning

## When to choose
- you use CSS Grid and want smooth layout transitions without writing FLIP logic yourself
- you need to animate grid-template-columns, gap, or grid placement, which pure CSS cannot transition
- you want configurable easing, duration, and stagger for grid animations

## When to avoid
- your layouts use flexbox or absolute positioning instead of CSS Grid
- you need a general-purpose animation library for non-grid properties
- you need framework-specific animation integrations with built-in support
