Our Commentary ​

A dedicated animation-trigger property in CSS? This is genuinely exciting. We've all hacked around with JavaScript to get precise animation timing based on events. If this lands widely, it could significantly clean up our animation code and improve performance by keeping more logic in CSS. I'm eager to see its browser support and how it integrates with existing animation APIs.
