Animation isn’t just a pinch of fun in user interfaces. When used wisely, motion enhances the usability and navigability of the layout and makes microinteractions clear and transitions beautiful. Also, it adds mood and connects UI with objects from the real world, which may be a factor of comfort for many users. To support designers on that, we’ve just released a pack of free animated icons in JSON for Lottie, GIF, and After Effects format. Join the release party on Product Hunt or explore the details here.
