# Anima

Anima is an add-on for the Godot game engine that simplifies the process of creating dynamic and impactful UI animations.

## Introduction

![Example of animation created with anima](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/ceceppa/anima/main/docs/assets/images/anima.gif)

Working with Godot's Tween to create UI animations can be quite challenging.
However, Anima, an add-on for Godot, simplifies the process by allowing you to create animations using a clear and concise syntax with just a few lines of code.
With 89 built-in animations and 33 easing options, Anima provides a vast array of options to choose from.
Moreover, you can easily add your animations using a syntax similar to CSS, making it a convenient tool for developers.
