How does it handle accessibility?

It automatically respects the 'prefers-reduced-motion' media query, ensuring your animations are accessible to all users by default.

Can I use it for complex animation sequences?

While excellent for list transitions and accordions, it recommends switching to a library like Framer Motion for highly complex or specific custom orchestrations.

What frameworks does this skill support?

It supports React, Vue, Solid, Svelte, and Preact, providing framework-specific implementation patterns and hooks for each.

Why are my animations flashing or not working?

This skill helps identify and fix common issues like missing unique keys, conditional parent rendering, and flexbox layout conflicts that typically break transitions.

Does it handle Server-Side Rendering (SSR) issues?

Yes, it includes specialized patterns for Next.js and Cloudflare Workers to prevent 'window is not defined' and other DOM-related import errors during SSR.
