React View Transitions

React View Transitions gives an agent a structured approach to adding motion between interface states with React and the browser’s transition capabilities. It focuses on animations that clarify navigation, continuity, loading, and layout changes rather than adding movement for decoration.

Highlights

• Plans transitions for routes, components, lists, shared elements, and asynchronously revealed content
• Distinguishes hierarchical navigation from lateral movement so animation direction matches the interface model
• Covers React transition boundaries, contextual transition types, CSS pseudo-elements, and reusable animation classes
• Includes guidance for Next.js App Router projects, including links, router actions, Server Components, and Suspense
• Accounts for reduced-motion preferences, unsupported browsers, nested boundaries, and common silent failures

The skill suits React and Next.js developers who want an agent to design, implement, or troubleshoot native-feeling UI motion. Its bundled reference material provides implementation steps, CSS recipes, framework-specific notes, and debugging patterns, while the skill folder contains no executable helper scripts. Install it from the Vercel Labs agent-skills repository with the published skills CLI command.
