How these alternatives were chosen
Tools Motion names as alternatives that this directory also publishes, followed by others in Library. The order is not a ranking, and "—" means we have not checked that field — not that the answer is no.
Motion also lists GSAP, Animate.css, AOS (Animate On Scroll), Three.js (for 3D), Web Animations API (native) as alternatives. Those are not in this directory yet, so there is nothing to compare — and nothing to link to.
