Let's make some web animation tools.

I've got an idea or two for a nice UI for animating on the web. Just think about it: visually animating elements using intuitive inputs in the browser, their natural environment, and spitting out CSS and/or Web Animations API. Imagine how many students, motion designers, and interaction developers would benefit.

I want to live that dream, and I'm guessing you want to, too.

I've got the diagrams, the ideas, sometimes even the math, and the front end and UI design skills to do this, but I will spend a year sweating and fretting and trying to make this happen all on my own with my less than stellar JavaScript skills...

...or you and I could team up and do this in half that time.

Are you game?

Are you good with JavaScript? *

Just looking for JavaScript development here. If you're like, "ooh ooh, I have OTHER skills that you totally need for this!" (or even, "but I want to throw money at your face, Rachel!") just send me an email at rachelnabors at the gmails :) You don't want to get mixed up in this data set.

Yes.

How are you good with JavaScript? *

Have you authored a library? Do you know how to parse CSS? Can you do tricksy math and spit out complex keyframe percentages based on said math? DOES FITTING POINTS TO CURVES EXCITE YOU???? YOU MUST LIKE THESE THINGS OR YOU WILL START CRYING AND ASK TO GO HOME AND I WILL BE DISCOURAGED.

Ever author a browser extension?

One option is to release whatever is built as a browser extension, probably for Firefox (it has cutting edge web animations API support).

How much time do you have? *

Be honest.

I can do this all day. Seriously. I'm doing it right now.

I was thinking a three week project or the like. I like sprints and boundaries.

I can make this one of my pet projects at work.

I'll get to it while I'm super excited then get tired and wander away. What? At least I'm honest.

I'll commit to working on this for a set amount of time together every week. We'll work it out.

Ideally we make awesome animation tools and... *

Check all that apply. Be honest.

shower them upon the world freely. I just want to give back. Sure, a UI can survive on goodwill alone.

GET PAID by someone. Somehow. Grants? Kickstarter? This is WORK, dammit. We should get paid!

after beta testing them on the public: paywalls. Paywalls everywhere.

we sell them to a company and get to live in nice houses.

become best friends.

then smash them to bits by abandoning the project just to watch everyone cry over its defunct repo.

Why would we make a good team? *

Hey, it could be worse: I could be asking you where you see yourself in five years. You got this.
