A React Native library that simplifies creating animated transitions, most notably shared-element transitions between screens. It provides components like SharedElement and SharedElementRenderer to move UI elements smoothly from a source position to a destination.

Use cases

• animate shared elements between list and detail screens in react native
• create smooth screen transition animations in react native
• implement material-style container transform animations
• make my app's ui transitions feel more polished
• animate a card expanding into a detail view
• add shared element transitions without writing native code

When to choose

• you are building a React Native app and want easy shared-element or screen transition animations
• you want a declarative, component-based API for motion instead of manual Animated code

When to avoid

• you need a actively maintained library with recent updates and broad React Native version support
• you need general-purpose animation primitives beyond shared-element transitions
• your project uses Expo with restrictions incompatible with the library's setup
