What is Web Animations API?

Web Animations API is a new JavaScript API for driving animated content on the web.

Web Animations unlocks features previously only usable declaratively, and exposes powerful, high-performance animation capabilities to developers.

With the Web Animations API, we can move interactive animations from stylesheets to JavaScript, separating presentation from behavior.

With the Web Animations API, we no longer need to rely on DOM-heavy techniques like writing CSS properties and scoping classes onto elements to control playback direction.

Browser Support

Web Animations API features is available by default in Firefox 48+ and Chrome 36+. For other browsers there’s a handy maintained polyfill that tests for feature support and adds it where necessary.

The polyfill and Animatelo are supported on modern versions of all major browsers, including:

  • Chrome
  • Firefox 27+
  • IE10+ (including Edge)
  • Safari (iOS) 7.1+
  • Safari (Mac) 9+

To install via Bower, simply do the following:
