FramerPageTransition [example] v1.0.0

Framer's marketing site uses a two-stage page transition: outgoing content fades down (opacity 1 → 0, translateY 0 → -8px) over 280ms, immediately followed by incoming content fading up (opacity 0 → 1, translateY 12px → 0) over 360ms. Total: ~640ms with a tight 80ms overlap. Uses cubic-bezier(0.32, 0.72, 0, 1) — a custom 'long-tail decel' that feels unmistakably Framer.

Aesthetic Notes

• Outgoing: opacity 1 → 0, transform translateY(0) → translateY(-8px). Duration 280ms, easing cubic-bezier(0.32, 0.72, 0, 1).
• Incoming: opacity 0 → 1, transform translateY(12px) → translateY(0). Duration 360ms, same easing, delay 200ms (starts before outgoing finishes — 80ms overlap).
• Asymmetry: outgoing distance is 8px (small, unobtrusive exit), incoming distance is 12px (more emphasis on arrival). Always favor the entry.
• Easing cubic-bezier(0.32, 0.72, 0, 1): rapid acceleration, very long deceleration tail. Feels 'considered' — slower at the end where you're absorbing the new content.
• No cross-fade. Framer specifically does NOT crossfade; the 80ms overlap is darkness. Crossfade looks like a slideshow; this looks like teleportation.
• Headline-only stagger on incoming: H1 leads (delay 200ms), body content follows at 240ms, CTAs at 280ms. Each step +40ms.
• Background never moves — only content layers translate. Static background = stable orientation cue.

What To Copy

• Asymmetric distance (exit small, entry bigger) is the Framer move. It signals 'arrival is more important than departure'.
• 80ms intentional darkness between fade-out and fade-in beats crossfade for SPAs that load fast — gives the brain a hard scene cut.
• cubic-bezier(0.32, 0.72, 0, 1) is the 'long tail' easing worth memorizing. Use it anywhere you want motion to feel 'thoughtful' (>300ms durations).
• Stage stagger on entry: heading first, body, CTAs last (40ms gaps). Reading order matches arrival order.
• Total budget ~640ms is the upper limit before users perceive 'slow'. Don't go past 800ms unless it's a celebrate-able moment.
• Translate-only, no scale. Page-level scale animations look like zoom transitions on phones — disorienting.

What To Skip

• Don't apply this to in-app navigation (sidebar nav clicks). 640ms × 50 navigations/day = a tax. Reserve for marketing-site or major route changes.
• Skip the overlap for slow-loading targets — if data isn't ready, you'll fade into a skeleton, which kills the magic. Use only when content is pre-fetched.
• Avoid reusing the 8px translate distance everywhere. The numbers (8px exit, 12px entry) are tuned to ~720px viewport heights; adjust for full-bleed editorial layouts.
• Don't combine page-transition + scroll-reveal on the same arrival — content gets two stagger animations stacked, which feels janky.

Demonstrates

• Asymmetric exit/entry distances (exit smaller) is a deliberate hierarchy choice — entries are foreground, exits are background.
• Intentional dark gap (80ms) between scenes is more confident than crossfade.
• Custom long-tail easing (0.32, 0.72, 0, 1) reads as 'considered' on durations >300ms in a way standard ease-in-out cannot.
• Reserved staging (heading → body → CTA, 40ms gaps) gives the page a reading order that matches its visual hierarchy.
