Websites have come a long way since the GeoCities days. But one fact remains the same: Nothing adds pizzazz to a website like animations. In 2020, sophisticated interactive animations make a website pop. And this Mac app makes it easy to add those elements to any site.

Hype 4 is a powerful HTML5 tool for creating animations. It’s great for websites, infographics, presentations, educational content, app prototypes, animated GIFs and lots more. HTML5 allows for rich visual content on desktops, smartphones and tablets alike, so this is a media tool with many possible uses.

An easy, keyframe-based animation system makes the animation process quick and intuitive. A “record mode” watches every move, automatically creating keyframes as needed. Vézier paths make for natural motion curves, while “handlers” initiate and control timelines, the transition between scenes and even run custom JavaScript for interactive elements. Blur, filters, scaling, skew, reflection and 3D transforms round out a big toolkit for creating beautiful animations.
