Animation Governance Planner

Track motion budgets, approvals, and reduced-motion fallbacks per surface.

Animation / Sequence

List every animated surface so design, engineering, and accessibility stay aligned.

Add your first surface to begin planning.

Overview

Track motion budgets, approvals, and reduced-motion treatments in one plan.

How to use

  1. Add each animated surface with duration targets and ownership.
  2. Record status and reduced-motion fallback decisions.
  3. Export the Markdown brief to share with engineering and QA.

Use cases

  • Bundle animation expectations for brand launches.
  • Track accessibility outcomes for complex motion systems.
  • Coordinate stakeholder sign-off across design, eng, and compliance.

Tips & knowledge

  • Aim for sub-200 ms response on interactive motion.
  • Provide explicit reduced-motion behaviour for every surface.
  • Review plans quarterly to retire legacy motion debt.
