GUI for CSS animation

Develop CSS animations right from your browser. Keyframes web developers can work with. Cross platform - you only need a browser to start working. Production ready - the generated code works every time without dependencies. Built for designers + animators + developers. Finely tuned animations - the easy way.

When it comes to animation, there is a rift between designers and developers. We know from experience that it is super hard to get everything just right: timing, smoothness, animation flow. This makes it difficult to translate the design vision into working code.

We are building Alfred Studio to bridge this rift. By visualizing the important aspects of animation on timelines, developers can easily understand the original intention of the designer and implement it accurately.

Timeline for easy visualization

Clearly laid out parallel animations - just like sheet music. Drag the keyframes around, this makes tuning your animations super intuitive, shortening development time.

No more conversion CSS

CSS keyframes combine percentages and absolute time - working with one animation is easy, but managing multiple animations gets complex fast. Alfred helps you get an overview of what animations are happening simultaneously and makes synchronizing easy.

Live Connection with your site

Alfred Studio Preview

This is the web in 2019: forget refreshing your site. Just play around with the sliders and see the results in your project in near real time. Make small changes and see the effect immediately - removes the hassle of fine tuning.

Export CSS when done

Alfred generates CSS you can put to use immediately, without need for libraries or dependencies.

This is a work in progress

Alfred Studio is a prototype - already useful as is, but please excuse the occasional bugs and the limited functionality. Feel free to contact us with ideas, suggestions and bug reports, we are actively developing Alfred and we need your input.

So you can have production ready code with a COPY-PASTE

Live connection

So you don't need to refresh the page to test every change.

Easing Editor

Just cause we need it!

Present

Just a prototype, but we already have the next features planned.

Bugfix & Optimizations

We know there are bugs that need to be fixed.
