My main problem with CSS animations is that it does not have an easy way to detect and intercept the animation stage. Sure you can listen to animation start, iteration and end, even you can get time elapsed but I am not aware of how I can get individual key frames and change it on the fly.
Amazing job. I was looking for something like this since ages. I think a great improvement would be if it generates SASS/SCSS + Compass code as an export feature. I saw it's written in coffeescript so I might also help in the future ( I'm a bit busy with a project these days ).
Love this, and honestly I really admire TicTail. They have such an awesome UX and thoughtful user on boarding process(es). One of the most inspiring startups for me as a designer / developer
Wow, really nice work! This is in harsh comparison to the other piles of animation libraries which seem to be slow and bloated. I especially like the "jelly" effect.
My only complaint is that the animation editor seems to be a little unintuitive. Maybe add some sort of arrow pointing towards the "Add Component" dropdown.
cool, but the output css reminds me of animations I made in 1998 using dreamweaver. It also generated a ton of "steps" that it would call via setTimeout to make the div move around the screen
The CSS code has tons of hardcoded numbers. Ugly for future programers to read and maintain. Isn't there a way to do this with prettier code. eg JS make CSS.
Yes the underlying JS library for generating the animations is coming out soon! In the meanwhile you can still save the URL for the generated animation if you need to go back to edit it later.
This post set off HN's voting ring detector (quite badly), but we turned that off because we want to see original work on HN.
Please don't ring-vote posts—i.e. solicit upvotes. Besides setting off the ring detector, which penalizes the post, it will eventually get your account penalized as well.
Hey thanks! I was really not trying to abuse the voting system, but I can see that it becomes a bit suspicious when a bunch of people from the office want to upvote my project.
How do you find out if your account is penalized? I actually shared something I posted on HN before, on my fb wall, and some people who liked it upvoted it. Is that allowed?

It's not that it isn't allowed, but if people upvote your post in ring-votey ways, then the ring detector could be set off [1]. Keep in mind that it can't tell anything about intent. We know that in most cases people mean well.
1. I know I'm speaking vaguely but I hope everyone understands why that's necessary.
Totally Off-topic, but do you know who I have to reach to get an invite for DN? I'm reading it since 2 years and I'm totally desperate, because I want to contribute in a way ( submissions, comments )
