Can I use this skill with both React and Solid projects?

Yes, this skill provides specific implementation patterns and hooks for both @opentui/react and @opentui/solid, ensuring native framework compatibility.

How does the timeline system work in OpenTUI?

The timeline allows you to add multiple animation targets with specific durations and delays, providing precise control over when and how elements move or change.

Are there limitations to animating in a terminal environment?

Animations are constrained to character cells rather than pixels, and performance is generally optimized for a 60 FPS maximum refresh rate.

What easing functions are available for terminal animations?

The skill supports a wide array of functions including Linear, Quad, Cubic, Quart, Expo, Back, Elastic, and Bounce for natural-feeling motion.

How do I ensure smooth performance for CLI animations?

The skill recommends using integer rounding for character positioning and provides patterns for proper hook-based cleanup to prevent memory leaks.

设计工具

Implements timeline-based animations and smooth motion transitions for terminal user interfaces using React or Solid.

The opentui-animation skill provides a comprehensive framework for creating dynamic terminal user interfaces (TUIs) with sophisticated motion and state-driven transitions. It offers a robust timeline-based system that allows developers to orchestrate complex sequences, including staggered lists, progress bars, and custom easing effects. By providing domain-specific patterns for both React and Solid, this skill enables the creation of highly interactive CLI tools that maintain high performance and visual polish within the constraints of the terminal's character grid.
