GreenSuck is not free.

  Why the sour puss? Greensock animations used to be everybody’s goto back in the days of AS3 and jQuery.

  A good portion of it is, and the rest is absolutely worth the money.

  Imagine that: people wanting money for a complex project providing value.

any good comparison table between them?

  Rive is great and simple, its kinda a better version of Lottie. here is some resources to learn more: https://rive.app/use-cases https://rive.app/use-cases https://rive.app/blog/rive-as-a-lottie-alternative https://rive.app/blog/rive-as-a-lottie-alternative

I used motion.dev on a couple of test projects when I heard of it. And it's nice, the docs can be a bit lacking, though, and the userbase is tiny enough to have little to no discussion online.

Does one of these tools support an animation timeline with arbitrary seeking? Essentially I want to be able to have a progress slider representing the current time, and if the user clicks on any time on the slider, all animations should spring to that state, like a YouTube video. I played around with GSAP, anime and some others, but none properly supported playing the animations "backwards" (while jumping back). I wrote my own implementation of a declarative animation engine (i.e. the same timeline position always looks the same), but I'm pretty sure there are still a couple of bugs allowing you to go out of sync.

  I'd think GSAP timeline is exactly made for that, but you say you've already tried that? https://greensock.com/docs/v3/GSAP/Timeline https://greensock.com/docs/v3/GSAP/Timeline https://greensock.com/docs/v3/GSAP/Timeline/seek https://greensock.com/docs/v3/GSAP/Timeline/seek() https://greensock.com/docs/v3/GSAP/Timeline/reverse https://greensock.com/docs/v3/GSAP/Timeline/reverse()

    I thought I did. Maybe I need to have another look, because the examples do seem to be exactly what I wanted. Thank you for the suggestion!

  The native Web Animations API supports this with setting currentTime relative to the total duration.

Has anyone done any benchmarks comparing the different solutions? I hit a performance bug with greensock once and just quickly wrote my own simple animation framework, which I am using ever since, but I suppose it can be done better. I would think the native browser animation capability is superior?

I was looking for an animation library some time ago, and theatrejs looks incredible. Anybody has any experience with it? In the end I used blender for what I needed, but I got very curious about it.
