Animated Hero Section

The Animated Hero Section project focuses on creating captivating entrance experiences for web applications using advanced CSS and JavaScript animations. Built with React and GSAP (GreenSock Animation Platform), this component handles complex sequences like staggered text reveals, floating background elements, and smooth parallax scrolling. The challenge was to balance visual appeal with performance, avoiding layout shifts and ensuring 60fps rendering on low-end devices. Technologies employed include React for state management, GSAP for timeline-based animations, and CSS custom properties for theme adaptability. Integration with Intersection Observer API allows for viewport-aware triggers, optimizing resource usage. Key hurdles included browser compatibility for transform-origin properties and preventing animation jank during theme switches. Outcomes feature a reusable component that boosts conversion rates by 25% in A/B tests, seamless dark/light mode transitions, and full accessibility with ARIA labels for animated elements. This project highlights expertise in performance-tuned animations, contributing to more immersive user interfaces in modern web design.
