## What it is
A lightweight React library for FLIP-based layout transitions, supporting position, scale, and opacity animations with spring physics. It also offers a framework-agnostic core (flip-toolkit) for use outside React.

## Use cases
- animate list reordering in react
- magic move transitions between components
- animate element position and scale on layout change
- spring-based stagger animations
- animate parent size without warping children
- shared element transitions in react

## When to choose
- you need real FLIP animations with scale and opacity in React
- you want spring physics and stagger effects for layout transitions
- you need nested scale transforms that don't distort children

## When to avoid
- you need CSS-only transitions without JavaScript
- you're not using React and don't want the core toolkit API
- you need complex keyframe or timeline-based animations

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: animation, ui-components
- domain: frontend, web-development
- platform: browser
- tags: flip-animations, layout-animations, spring-physics, react, typescript
