With combination of fade, zoom, direction, easing and delay you can create unlimited number of creative elegant animations. More CSS animations coming soon.

CSS Entrance animations:

  • Fade
  • Zoom In
  • Zoom Out
  • Wipe
  • Slide

WebGL animations

WebGL animations convert any element to image with html2canvas.js, then apply effects to image with custom GLSL shaders. Best use is for simple elements like heading, button or image. With WebGL we can create effects that are not possible with CSS, like 3D distortions or gradient fade, and add those effects to any element on the page.

WebGL Entrance animations:

  • Fade
  • Slide
  • Stretch
  • Bend
  • Flip
  • Zoom
  • Peel

Lightweight

Only 35kb for CSS animations, additional 45kb if WebGL animations are used.

Elementor animations

Add Entrance animation to any element in Elementor. Select animation type, direction, distance, delay, duration and easing in the Element Advanced tab.

Gutenberg Blocks animations

Add Entrance animation to any Gutenberg block. Select animation type, direction, distance, delay, duration and easing in the block inspector controls.

Entrance Animations via CSS class

If you don’t use Elementor or Gutenberg blocks, you can still use AnimateGL via CSS classes. Add one of preset entrance animations or custom entrance animation to any element on the page by adding the animation CSS class.

More animations available with Entrance pack:

  • Circle (CSS)
  • Square (CSS)
  • Line (CSS)

Customize direction, duration, easing and delay for each animations

Customize animation properties via CSS class:

  • Fade – with options for directional fade and threshold
  • Translate – with options for x, y, and z direction
  • Rotation – with options for x, y, and z axis
  • Corners Distortion – for added animation variety
  • Duration – customize the length of the animation
  • Delay – customize the start time of the animation
  • Easing – customize the speed and flow of the animation

Repeat

By default, entrance animation will play when element enters the viewport for the first time. With option repeat enabled, the animation will play each time element enters the viewport.

Lock to scrollbar

Instead of fixed duration entrance animation, we can make the animation progress depend on the scroll position of the element. If the element is below the viewport, the animation progress will be 0. As we scroll the page down, and element is moving towards the middle of the viewport, the animation progresses. The end of animation is when element reches the middle of the viewport. Lock to scrollbar option can be enabled for any animation.

Mouse Effects

AnimateGL also offers mouse-driven distortion effects, including:

  • Pull – with options for strength, size, RGB shift, and ease

Scroll triggered animations

Entrance animation is played when when the element enters the viewport, when it becomes visible on the screen.

Viewport entrance threshold

By default, entrance animation start to play when 70% or 200px of the element enters the viewport.

Live Editor

Use live editor to create your custom entrance animation.

Enhance the visual appeal of your website with AnimateGL, the most powerful and advanced WebGL animation plugin for WordPress. With its lightweight 33kb gzipped size and no dependencies, AnimateGL is fast, easy to use, and the perfect choice for web designers looking to add unique animations to their website.

Promising animation plugin. I just don’t know about being the most advanced. The available effects are fairly standards, and you have to configure the presents. Custom effect per block is not possible. Also, when I add the plugin’s special css class to a block, the block disappears from the editor view. Although animation runs on the front end, you want to be able to see the static version of the block in the editor for layout purposes. Update: the author responded and addressed my issues. I got the plugin working as expected. Awesome. Another update: been using this plugin for a couple projects and I like the animation effects and easy to use interface. Recently I found some issue with some HTML code the plugin injects in my template code causing display issues. I’ve posted a support request about it.

It’s really easy to set up and use. Very user-friendly support. I also notice that, especially WebGL effects, they are amazing and also have Lock to scrollbar. I strongly advise you to use that plugin.
