## Description

AniLibrary gives you one wrapper block that can hold almost any other block. Add
the wrapper, drop your content inside, choose an animation, and you’re done.

Features:

 * Works with core blocks, groups, columns, and most custom blocks.
 * Choose when animations start: page load, scroll into view, hover, click, or loop.
 * Use the Scrub media preset to move through a video or GIF as someone scrolls.
 * GIFs can move in steps; videos give the smoothest result.
 * Start top-of-page scrub media at the beginning when the page first loads.
 * Repeat scrubbed media playback across a scroll range for multiple visible cycles.
 * Suggests animation styles based on the content inside.
 * Respects users who prefer reduced motion.
 * Lightweight front-end output.
 * No tracking and no outside asset requests.
