I also tried to get my feet wet in SVG animation. Made with inkscape and animated in GSAP.

It seems like all the animations in this article are GIFs, not actual animated SVGs :(

I wonder why he chose to export them as GIFs after going through all the work to create SVGs. They also seem to be pretty choppy as a result. Maybe whatever CMS the article is using doesn't support SVGs?

I converted them to GIF for portability (and because CB asked for that format).

Yes GIF is horrible but it's a necessary evil in this current social media climate.
