Spring Physics

StiffnessiHow quickly the animation reaches its target. Higher values create snappier animations.300

DampingiHow much the animation resists motion. Lower values create more bounce and overshoot.30

MassiHow heavy the element feels during animation. Higher values make animations slower with more momentum.1

Generated Code

const springConfig = {
  "type": "spring",
  "stiffness": 300,
  "damping": 30,
  "mass": 1
};

// Basic hover animation
<motion.div
  whileHover={{ scale: 1.05 }}
  whileTap={{ scale: 0.95 }}
  transition={springConfig}
>
  <GlowCard />
</motion.div>

// Advanced with custom animations
<motion.div
  animate={{ 
    scale: [1, 1.02, 1],
    y: [0, -4, 0]
  }}
  transition={{
    ...springConfig,
    repeat: Infinity,
    repeatDelay: 2
  }}
>
  <GlowCard />
</motion.div>

Stiffness: Controls animation speed. Higher values create snappier animations.

Damping: Controls resistance to motion. Lower values create more bounce and overshoot.

Mass: Controls the perceived weight. Higher values make animations slower with more momentum.
