tween.js is a JavaScript/TypeScript tweening engine for easy animations, incorporating optimized Robert Penner's easing equations. It tweens properties of any object over time and integrates into any animation loop you provide.

Use cases

• animate dom element properties with easing
• tween object properties over time in javascript
• smooth easing animations for web ui
• create tweened animations for canvas or webgl
• interpolate numeric values with easing functions
• add animation to a three.js scene

When to choose

• you want a small, focused tweening library that only interpolates object properties
• you need reusable easing functions or custom easing curves
• you want to plug tweens into your own animation loop
• you need a battle-tested library with TypeScript support

When to avoid

• you need CSS unit handling or color interpolation out of the box
• you want a full-featured animation framework with built-in animation loops and timelines
• you need keyframe-based CSS animation tooling
