Velocity is an accelerated JavaScript animation engine for animating DOM elements with better performance than jQuery's animate, supporting color animation, transforms, loops, easings, and SVG. It works standalone or chained with jQuery/Zepto and includes a UI pack with prebuilt transitions.
Use cases
- animate dom elements with javascript
- fast alternative to jquery animate
- animate colors and css transforms
- add page transitions and ui effects
- animate svg elements
- scroll animations in the browser
When to choose
- you need high-performance dom animation without heavy frameworks
- you want a drop-in replacement for jquery .animate()
- you need color, transform, or svg animation with easing control
When to avoid
- you are starting a new project where Web Animations API or CSS animations suffice
- you need a modern actively maintained library
- you are animating canvas or WebGL content
