## What it is
NextStep is a lightweight onboarding library for Next.js and React applications that creates step-by-step interactive product tours. It uses Motion (Framer Motion) for animations and supports navigation adapters for Next.js, React Router, and Remix.

## Use cases
- add a step-by-step product tour to a Next.js app
- guide new users through onboarding flows
- create interactive walkthroughs that span multiple pages
- trigger tours based on user events or form interactions
- customize tour tooltip cards with custom React components
- track tour progress with analytics callbacks

## When to choose
- you need lightweight onboarding tours in a Next.js, React Router, or Remix app
- you want smooth animations powered by Framer Motion
- you need tours that navigate across pages
- you want full control over tour card appearance and behavior

## When to avoid
- your app is not React-based
- you need onboarding for native mobile apps
- you want a zero-dependency solution since Motion is required
