Ease editor animations in Webflow
Key points

When you create animations on Webflow, you can use different "modes" to define how the animation will progress. Combined with a timing value, this choice plays a significant role in the final effect of your animation.

Default Animation Choices

By default, in the Webflow Designer interface, you have the option to add the 5 most popular animation styles.

Linear Transition

The animation will have the same speed from start to finish.

Ease Transition

This is the default mode used for CSS animations. The animation will start slowly, then speed up, and finish slowly.

Ease-in Transition

The animation has a slow start.

Ease-out Transition

The animation has a slow ending.

Ease-in-out Transition

The animation has both a slow start and a slow ending.
