React View Transitions

Guide for implementing smooth, native-feeling animations using React's View Transition API (<ViewTransition> component, addTransitionType, and CSS view transition pseudo-elements). Use this skill whenever the user wants to add page transitions, animate route changes, create shared element animations, animate enter/exit of components, animate list reorder, implement directional (forward/back) navigation animations, or integrate view transitions in Next.js. Also use when the user mentions view transitions, startViewTransition, ViewTransition, transition types, or asks about animating between UI states in React without third-party animation libraries.

• None required to install this profile. Individual skills may require tools or credentials documented in their own SKILL.md files.

License provenance

Upstream declares MIT. The original declaration and pinned source are preserved in for-forgecat/LICENSE-SOURCE.md and in the installed skill’s forgecat-notices/ directory. MIT-STANDARD-REFERENCE.md is a ForgeCat-added reference, not an upstream LICENSE. No copyright holder or year has been supplied by ForgeCat. The upstream missing copyright notice remains disclosed.

Verification scope

This is a locally prepared candidate. Fresh exact-version installation and runtime verification are pending on all five platforms; no Tested claim is inherited. External service access, application deployment and model output quality have not been tested.

Source instructions and supporting documents remain inside the owning skill. Older ForgeCat-generated duplicate global rules/instructions are not recreated. This preserves the upstream skill call boundary and avoids injecting its entire reference guide into every session.
