Introduction

renature is a physics-based animation library for React inspired by the natural world. Taking influence from other popular physics-based animation libraries like and elements of , renature focuses on using non-traditional physics primitives like gravity, friction, and fluid resistance. It also provides a simple two-dimensional API for creating visual experiences similar to or .

renature focuses on speed, precision, and a small bundle size. The implementation is a mix of and . We use ReScript for the vector primitives, parsers, and interpolators, and TypeScript for the hooks implementations and frame loop. We also value being dependency-free — renature has no external dependencies!
