Writing that feels pretty wild. Making Framer Motion has been the best job of my life. To do so for six years within the best product team in the world, both a massive learning experience and a privilege.

With Framer's blessing and support, Framer Motion is now completely independent. I'm spinning it off into its own project, to better serve the whole community.

There are two big changes to highlight. The first is Motion's brand new home, here at motion.dev. Besides a fresh new design, it finally has a much-requested search!

The second change is also a big request from the community. For a long time, users have asked to use Framer Motion outside of React. Either with vanilla JS, or other frameworks like Vue.

Today, Motion becomes more than a React library, with an amazing set of vanilla APIs that bring Motion's hybrid engine and extensive feature set to everyone.

In the coming weeks and months, more features from Framer Motion will make their way to this new vanilla API, and I'll be writing new integration guides that will help you use them everywhere.
