three.js
JavaScript 3D library
three.js is a lightweight and easy-to-use JavaScript 3D library with its own default WebGL renderer. It works by creating a scene with a camera and a geometric cube, the latter of which is added to the scene. This will become the animated object within the scene. A WebGL renderer is created for the scene and the camera, with an added viewport to the document.body element. Finally, the cube is animated within the scene for the camera. A plethora of examples can be found in the project’s website (https://threejs.org/) which use Canvas 2D, SVG and CSS3D renderers that the library also provides. -

Typed.js
A JavaScript typing animation library
Typed.js is a library that types. Enter in any string, and watch it type at the speed you've set, backspace what it's typed, and begin a new sentence for however many strings you've set. Rather than using the strings array to insert strings, you can place an HTML div on the page and read from it. This allows bots and search engines, as well as users with JavaScript disabled, to see your text on the page. You can pause in the middle of a string for a given amount of time by including an escape character. CSS animations are built upon initialization in JavaScript. But, you can customize them at your will! -

Velocity
Accelerated JavaScript animation
Velocity is an animation engine with the same API as jQuery's animate. It works with and without jQuery. It's incredibly fast, and it features color animation, transforms, loops, easings, SVG support, and scrolling. It is the best of jQuery and CSS transitions combined. Velocity works everywhere — back to IE8 and Android 2.3. Under the hood, it mimics jQuery's queue, and thus interoperates seamlessly with jQuery's animate, fade, and delay. Since Velocity's syntax is identical to animate, your code doesn't need to change. JavaScript and jQuery are falsely conflated. JavaScript animation, which Velocity uses, is fast; it's jQuery that's slow. Although Velocity works alongside jQuery, it uses its own animation stack that delivers its performance through two underlying principles: 1) synchronize the DOM → tween stack to minimize layout thrashing, and 2) cache values to minimize DOM querying. -

Vivus.js
JavaScript library to make drawing animation on SVG
Vivus is a lightweight JavaScript class (with no dependencies) that allows you to animate SVGs, giving them the appearence of being drawn. There are a variety of different animations available, as well as the option to create a custom script to draw your SVG in whatever way you like. Every path element is drawn at the same time with a small delay at the start. This is currently the default animation. Each line is drawn synchronously. They all start and finish at the same time, hence the name `sync`. Each path element is drawn one after the other. This animation gives the best impression of live drawing. To give more freedom, it's possible to override the animation of each path and/or the entire SVG. It works a bit like the CSS animation timing function. But instead of using a cubic-bezier function, it use a simple JavaScript function. It must accept a number as parameter (between 0 to 1), then return a number (also between 0 and 1). It's a hook. -

css-spinner
Small, elegant pure css spinner for ajax or loading animation
Open source CSS loading animations dedicated for speed, simplicity & dev-friendly. Loading.io's CSS spinner uses CSS Animation, which is wildly supported by all modern browsers such as Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. However, the Microsoft Internet Explorer version earlier than 10 doesn't support CSS Animation. To support older IE, you have to use a GIF format image. Choose one from loading.io's online spinner gallery and you can customize a unique loader GIF with our icon editor easily. Some older browsers need prefixes like '-WebKit-' to use CSS Animation. To minimize file size, we omitted all vendor prefixes in loaders' CSS, but you can customize this by building CSS from the source. We also provide stylus and pug source files for better integrating these spinners into your project. Find corresponding stylus and pug files for your desired spinners under src/ folders. -

MilkDrop Anywhere
A remote control MilkDrop2 plugin for Windows
Allows you to easily remote control MilkDrop2 VJ Console in Winamp (Windows only) via graphic interface from any browser (via tablet or cellphone perhaps). You must have Apache2 (or any webserver) with PHP 5.4+ running on the same computer Winamp is running on and some basic knowledge of how that all works. Once you've got everything set up and running, it should run near flawlessly (I was using it for a few hours continuously once with no hiccups) There's a readme.txt file inside the zip file with some basic instructions. Check out the Wiki or Discussion tab for up to date instructions, info, and more... If anyone actually uses this, please let me know in the Discussion tab - I don't know if the interest would be that high this day and age but you never know... If you're a programmer, you could tweak this program as a template to remotely control anything you want (just give me some credit, I wrote it from scratch) Not a 100% easy setup, but anyone can do it! -

Christmas Tree
Just a simple Christmas tree, based on reddit story
atree is a lightweight JavaScript library for managing and visualizing hierarchical tree data structures in a flexible and efficient way. It offers core abstractions for creating nodes, building parent–child relationships, and traversing trees with utilities for depth, breadth, and custom iteration strategies. Because tree structures are ubiquitous in computing—from file systems and organizational charts to DOM structures and evolutionary taxonomies—atree provides a reusable foundation for representing and interacting with nested data. It separates the logical model from rendering concerns, so you can use it as the data backbone in UI frameworks, graphs, or custom visual components. The library’s API makes it easy to add, remove, or move nodes anywhere in the hierarchy while maintaining consistent references and performance. -

Each effect is isolated, documented, and demoed, allowing designers to copy just what they need rather than dragging in a monolithic framework. By standardizing names and behaviors, it helps teams keep motion design consistent across a product while remaining easy to theme. The library doubled as a learning resource during the rise of CSS animations, showing how to achieve polished interactions without heavy JavaScript. -

Loaders.css
Delightful, performance-focused pure css loading animations
loaders.css is a collection of pure CSS loading animations designed to drop into any web project without JavaScript or image assets. Each loader is built from simple HTML elements animated with CSS keyframes, transforms, and opacity to create spinners, pulses, bars, and geometric patterns. Because they’re vector-based and CSS-driven, the animations scale cleanly at any resolution and look sharp on high-DPI displays. The library emphasizes small, reusable snippets: you copy a minimal markup block, apply the provided class, and tweak size or color through CSS variables or overrides. Animations are crafted to be smooth and performant, relying on GPU-friendly properties to keep frame rates high even on mobile devices. The set covers common loading metaphors (pulsing dots, rotating squares, bouncing bars), giving designers a consistent visual language across a site while keeping bundle size tiny.
