Webflow has made the GreenSock Animation Platform (GSAP) completely free, including all plugins, to empower developers and creators with advanced web animation tools. Alongside this, they have released significant improvements to GSAP and enhanced integration and preview features within Webflow.

Why it matters: GSAP’s full free access removes cost barriers, enabling more developers to create rich, interactive web experiences.

The big picture: Webflow aims to deeply integrate GSAP into its platform, expanding visual animation tools for users without coding skills.

Quick takeaway: Major upgrades include a 50% smaller SplitText plugin, better accessibility, and simplified plugin use directly inside Webflow.

Commenters say: Users appreciate the unexpected free access and improved tools but note GSAP is not open-source and caution about license restrictions.
