GSAP with Webflow

I build motion using Webflow's GSAP-powered Interactions or custom GSAP code, depending on the control, the data and the maintenance the project needs.

GSAP integrations like this usually take 3 days–2 weeks

How it works

How the handoff works.

  1. 01

    Trigger

    Scroll, click or load

  2. 02

    Timeline

    The sequence, authored

  3. 03

    Elements

    What moves, and in what order

  4. 04

    Performance

    Composited, and off the main thread

    Key handoff

  5. 05

    Reduced motion

    Honored, not ignored

Why this is the key handoff

Motion is a build decision, not a finishing touch. Whether something is a Webflow interaction or written GSAP is decided by what has to be controlled, what data it depends on and who maintains it afterward. The check at the end is the same either way: it runs at sixty frames, and it respects somebody who has asked for less motion.

Before you wire it

Three things that commonly go wrong.

  1. 01

    Scroll-linked animation on a mid-range phone is the real test

    It is smooth on the laptop it was built on. Anything animating layout properties rather than transform and opacity recalculates on every frame, and that shows up on slower hardware, so it gets tested across the devices your audience actually uses.

  2. 02

    It fights Webflow's own Interactions if both touch the same element

    Two systems setting the same transform produce a result neither intended. Per element, one of them owns the animation.

  3. 03

    Reduced motion is a requirement, not a nicety

    A visitor who has asked their operating system for less motion should get less motion. I test that preference: scrubbed motion resolves to its end state, decorative loops stop, and anything that carries meaning stays legible without the movement.

What you are buying

What is included.

  • Coordinated timelines across multiple elements

  • Scroll-linked motion that scrubs instead of simply triggering

  • CMS-driven animation patterns

  • Reduced-motion behavior for accessibility

  • Script loading that fits Webflow's custom-code limits
