## What it is
A small React library that adds animated transitions between routes in react-router, built on top of react-motion. It provides components like AnimatedSwitch and AnimatedRoute to animate page changes with spring-based motion.

## Use cases
- animate page transitions in a react-router app
- fade or slide between routes when navigating
- add spring-based route animations to a React SPA
- make route changes feel smooth instead of instant
- animate individual route components with react-motion

## When to choose
- you use react-router-dom v5 and want simple route transition animations
- you prefer spring physics animations via react-motion
- you need a lightweight, minimal transition layer without heavy dependencies

## When to avoid
- you need staggered or sequenced animations
- you need duration-based or easing timing functions
- you use react-router v6 or newer
- you need complex orchestration of enter/exit animations

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: animation, routing, ui-components
- domain: web-development, frontend
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: react, react-router, react-motion, page-transitions, route-animations, web-server
