Over the years, as devices have become more powerful, designers and developers have found new ways to use that power and express themselves. Animation is probably the most prominent of these expressions. It not only adds flair to the design of a site but also serves practical purposes, like enhancing storytelling and making navigation easier.
In this post, we’ve gathered a collection of websites that make the most of animation. Everything from small, subtle designs to bold and flashy animations is included in this list. So, stick with us as we showcase these innovative uses of animation.
Note on Site Speed: The site speed metric provided for each website in the list is based on Last Contentful Paint (LCP), a core metric that measures the time it takes for the largest visible element to load. This gives a realistic sense of when the main content becomes visible for the user.
