What is SmoothAnimate?

SmoothAnimate is tiny, super lightweight (5.2kb minified) javascript plugin that is designed to replace horribly slow jQuery’s $.animate().
It makes your animations really smooth and fast unlike jQuery.
It’s even faster than CSS animations!

How it works and why it is faster than jQuery?

Quite simply, because it works through requestAnimationFrame and written in pure JavaScript, that makes your animations so smooth as possible.

Why you’ll want it?
