Add Animation to Website Pages
How to add animation to your website with Animation on Scroll and custom modules
Scroll on Animation defers loading content until the user scrolls, which helps decrease page load times.
Hover effects, parallax, and other animations require additional code and can have a slight impact.
Additional impact on desktop and mobile if images are not compressed.
An image or video background also impacts page performance.
Convert images to WebP where possible to meet criteria to serve images in next-gen format.
To reduce image file sizes without losing quality, use TinyPNG to compress your images (JPG, PNG, WebP).
Vector images (SVG) also help keep file sizes to a minimum and can be used for graphics like logos and icons.
