- Hacker News
- Love the whimsy and playfulness of it.
- So I built this completely unnecessary, over-the-top animation demo just to have fun and showcase some agent skills I created help coding agents work with GSAP.
The skills cover stuff like:
- Page transitions across frameworks (Next.js, Astro,, Nuxt, etc) - Establishing a mount → intro → outro → cleanup pattern - Fun stuff like split-text entrances, scroll choreography, and particle effects (building on the official GSAP skills)
I used to be a Flash developer, so I channeled some of that energy back when websites used to be a lot more weird, and maybe even completely unreasonable.
So there are animaxxed versions of Wikipedia, Craigslist, Hacker News, GitHub, and more. Plus a theme switcher that takes the whole thing through Bauhaus, cinematic, early web, Strong Bad, etc.
