## What it is
React components that wrap the Velocity.js DOM animation library, providing declarative animation via VelocityComponent and VelocityTransitionGroup. It lets React apps run animations by changing an animation prop rather than imperatively calling Velocity.

## Use cases
- animate React components declaratively
- add fade or slide transitions to React UI
- run enter/exit animations with React TransitionGroup
- stagger animations across lists in React
- trigger animations from React state changes

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy React 15/16 app already using Velocity.js
- you want declarative, prop-driven DOM animations in React

## When to avoid
- starting a new React project - use framer-motion or CSS transitions instead
- you need React 17+ or modern React support
- you need actively maintained animation tooling

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: animation, ui-components, frontend-framework
- domain: web-development, frontend
