GSAP

HyperFrames Contract

HyperFrames controls GSAP through its gsap runtime adapter. Create a paused timeline synchronously, register it on window.__timelines with the exact data-composition-id, and let HyperFrames seek it.

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/gsap.min.js"></script>
<script>
  window.__timelines = window.__timelines || {};
  const tl = gsap.timeline({ paused: true });

  tl.from(".title", { y: 48, opacity: 0, duration: 0.6, ease: "power3.out" }, 0);
  tl.to(".accent", { scaleX: 1, duration: 0.5, ease: "power2.out" }, 0.25);

  window.__timelines["main"] = tl; // key must equal data-composition-id on the composition root
</script>

• The registry key must match the composition root's data-composition-id.
• Do not call tl.play() for render-critical motion.
• Do not build timelines inside async code, timers, or event handlers.
• Keep loops finite. HyperFrames renders finite video durations.

Core Tween Methods

• gsap.to(targets, vars) — animate from current state to vars. Most common.
• gsap.from(targets, vars) — animate from vars to current state (entrances).
• gsap.fromTo(targets, fromVars, toVars) — explicit start and end.
• gsap.set(targets, vars) — apply immediately (duration 0).

Always use camelCase property names (e.g. backgroundColor, rotationX).

Common vars

• duration — seconds (default 0.5).
• delay — seconds before start.
• ease — "power1.out" (default), "power3.inOut", "back.out(1.7)", "elastic.out(1, 0.3)", "none".
• stagger — number 0.1 or object: { amount: 0.3, from: "center" }, { each: 0.1, from: "random" }.
• overwrite — false (default), true, or "auto".
• repeat — finite number; never -1 in HyperFrames. Compute repeats from the visible duration. yoyo — alternates direction with repeat.
• onComplete, onStart, onUpdate — callbacks.
• immediateRender — default true for from()/fromTo(). Set false on later tweens targeting the same property+element to avoid overwrite.
