Animations when developing web apps and websites

mind blowing animations when developing web apps and websites. Here is a result of some research:

This looks good maybe:
Greensock:

Animation API:
https://github.com/web-animations/web-animations-next
D3.js:

https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki/Gallery
D3.js Book:

 For simple effects, you may also look into https://daneden.github.io/animate.css/.

http://julian.com/research/velocity/ has an easy to use API as well.

The good thing about these newer APIs (greensock/velocity) is that they make use of CSS animations instead of JS which is hardware accelerated hence a lot smoother.
