## What it is
Flux Slider is a JavaScript framework for image transitions built on CSS3 animations rather than JavaScript timers, leveraging hardware acceleration for smoother performance on mobile devices. It works with jQuery or Zepto.js and offers 2D and 3D transition effects like cubes, bars, and warps.

## Use cases
- create an image slideshow with css3 transitions
- add animated image carousel to a website
- smooth image transitions on mobile safari
- 3d cube and bar transition effects for images
- lightweight slider using zepto for mobile
- replace jquery timer-based slider with hardware accelerated one

## When to choose
- you want hardware-accelerated CSS3 image transitions with 2D/3D effects
- you target mobile browsers where CSS3 animations outperform JavaScript timers
- you already use jQuery or Zepto.js

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained project with active development
- you must support browsers without CSS3 transforms
- you want a framework-independent vanilla JS solution
