  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads motion automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

Motion Vue (motion-v)

Animation library for Vue 3 and Nuxt. Production-ready, hardware-accelerated animations with minimal bundle size.

Current stable: motion-v 1.x - Vue port of Motion (formerly Framer Motion)

Overview

Progressive reference for Motion Vue animations. Load only files relevant to current task (~200 tokens base, 500-1500 per sub-file).

When to Use

Use Motion Vue for:

  • Simple declarative animations (fade, slide, scale)
  • Gesture-based interactions (hover, tap, drag)
  • Scroll-linked animations
  • Layout animations and shared element transitions
  • Spring physics animations

Consider alternatives:

  • GSAP - Complex timelines, SVG morphing, scroll-triggered sequences
  • @vueuse/motion - Simpler API, less features, smaller bundle
  • CSS animations - Simple transitions without JS

Installation

# Vue 3
pnpm add motion-v

# Nuxt 3
pnpm add motion-v @vueuse/nuxt
// nuxt.config.ts - Nuxt 3 setup
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['motion-v/nuxt'],
})

Quick Reference

Working on...Load file
Motion component, gesturesreferences/components.md
useMotionValue, useScrollreferences/composables.md
Animation examples, patternsreferences/examples.md

Loading Files

Consider loading these reference files based on your task:

  • references/components.md - if using Motion component, gestures, or layout animations
  • references/composables.md - if using useMotionValue, useScroll, useSpring, or animate()
  • references/examples.md - if looking for animation patterns or inspiration

DO NOT load all files at once. Load only what's relevant to your current task.

Core Concepts

Motion Component

Render any HTML/SVG element with animation capabilities:

<script setup lang="ts">
import { motion } from 'motion-v'
</script>

<template>
  <motion.div
    :initial="{ opacity: 0, y: 20 }"
    :animate="{ opacity: 1, y: 0 }"
    :exit="{ opacity: 0, y: -20 }"
    :transition="{ duration: 0.3 }"
  >
    Animated content
  </motion.div>
</template>

Gesture Animations

<motion.button
  :whileHover="{ scale: 1.05 }"
  :whilePress="{ scale: 0.95 }"
  :transition="{ type: 'spring', stiffness: 400 }"
>
  Click me
</motion.button>

Scroll Animations

<motion.div
  :initial="{ opacity: 0 }"
  :whileInView="{ opacity: 1 }"
  :viewport="{ once: true, margin: '-100px' }"
>
  Appears on scroll
</motion.div>

Available Guidance

references/components.md - Motion component variants, animation props, gesture props, layout animations, transition configuration

references/composables.md - useMotionValue, useSpring, useTransform, useScroll, useInView, animate()

references/examples.md - External resources, component libraries, animation patterns and inspiration
