Gsap Fundamentals

This gets you started with GSAP's core animation API without the noise. You'll learn the four tween methods (to, from, fromTo, set), how to animate transforms and CSS properties, and which easing functions to reach for when. The stagger examples are solid for animating lists and grids, and the callbacks section covers the lifecycle hooks you actually need. It's focused on fundamentals rather than advanced plugins, so you're looking at basic tweens, timing controls, and playback methods. If you're used to CSS transitions and want programmatic control with better performance, or you're building anything interactive that needs smooth motion, this is the foundation. The ease comparison table alone saves you from guessing which curve feels right.
