Introduction
In this tutorial, we'll build an App Store-inspired card animation using Motion for React. This example shows how to create smooth, app-store-style transitions when opening and closing content cards.
We'll learn to use Motion APIs including:
The
motioncomponent to create animated elementslayoutIdfor smooth transitions between entirely different components (in this case the menu and the opened item)AnimatePresenceto handle elements entering and exiting the DOM
This technique creates fluid transitions between the card grid and expanded detail views, similar to what you'd see in the iOS App Store.
