Velocity is a jQuery plugin that re-implements $.animate() to produce significantly greater performance (making Velocity also faster than CSS animation libraries) while including new features to improve animation workflow.
Velocity works everywhere — back to IE8 and Android 2.3. Under the hood, Velocity uses jQuery’s $.queue(), and thus interoperates seamlessly with jQuery’s $.animate(), $.fade(), and $.delay(). Since Velocity’s syntax is identical to $.animate()’s, none of your code needs to change.
In just 7Kb, Velocity includes all of $.animate()’s features while also packing in color animation, transforms, loops, easings, class animation, and scrolling. Velocity is the best of jQuery, jQuery UI, and CSS transitions combined.
