3. Initialize the Library
\nOnce the library is added, you can begin leveraging its features within your Webflow project. Start with a very basic example. For instance, let's create a simple animation using GSAP and trigger it on a button click:
\n// GSAP Animation
โ
const button = document.querySelector('.my-button');
button.addEventListener('click', () => {
gsap.to('.my-element', { duration: 1, x: 100, opacity: 0 });
});
4. Add Additional Features
\nAfter getting a basic implementation of the library working in your Webflow project, start to explore and add additional configurations and functionality. Review the documentation and iterate as needed, making adjustments or optimizations based on testing results to ensure optimal performance.
\n// GSAP Animation
โ
const button = document.querySelector('.my-button');
const elements = document.querySelectorAll('.my-element');
โ
button.addEventListener('click', () => {
gsap.from(elements, {
duration: 1,
x: -100,
opacity: 0,
stagger: 0.2,
ease: \"power2.out\"
});
});
5. Finalize Your Implementation
\nOnce you have the implementation working correctly, revisit the code and refactor it. Remove any dead code and simplify the remaining code. Document where needed for yourself and future collaborators.

\nCall to Action
\nThis weekend, try implementing a new JS library in your project, and share your favorite JS libraries with us. We'll use your favorite libraries for future JavaScript tutorials.
\nHappy coding!

The AI world moves fast, and we are keeping up. This week, OpenAI released a new model, GPT 4.o mini. GPT 4.0 mini is an improved, cost-effective model that we are supporting under Slater's free tier. The default Slater AI will continue to be powered by GPT 3.5 as we test GPT 4.0 mini, but you can configure GPT 4.0 mini or even GPT 4.0 (paid) today.
