Explains concrete techniques: React fiber prioritizes animation; compares ReactCSSTransitionGroup, React-Motion, RxJS, D3 and GreenSock with tradeoffs; shows a reusable workflow component that uses React + GreenSock choreography to orchestrate timelines, morph SVG paths and clear props; demonstrates SVG path drawing via getTotalLength and a 6KB SVG loader; cites perceptual numbers (users overestimate waits by ~36% conversions −7% per second, Walmart +1% revenue per 100ms). Shows code patterns that actually work.
