Products that do what I made a free online Adobe alternative for animation and design does

Hey everyone! I'm excited to share Trangram, a completely free tool for animation and illustration that works right in your browser, no installs or sign-ups needed. I originally created Trangram to make motion graphics easier for myself, and as I kept working on it, I realized it could be useful for others too. It's been a fun side project, and I've used it to create my own animations, which you can check out on Trangram's gallery page. Since my first post here 6 months ago, I've made lots of updates. Want to see what's new over the past 6 months? Check it out here:…

    Hey there! I'm Sami. Over the past year, I've been busy building apps for clients, and I always found it challenging to discover a great animated component library. So, I took it upon myself to learn how to create beautiful animations. It was tough at first, but with persistence and a lot of practice, I eventually started crafting some really impressive animations for my clients! Now, I'm excited to share some of my favorite creations with you on my platform, DynaUI. I'd love to hear what you think!

    Recently there were some changes to the Twitter algorithm and one of the most important ones was boosting video content even more in the feed, which got me thinking: "Why shouldn't we benefit from the algo changes and get a boost every time we are sharing some visuals?" So I spent the weekend building a tool that: - Turns your images into videos - Has 30 beautiful animated gradients that we can pick from - Is completely FREE I'd love to know your thoughts about it!

    Hi HN! I made an app that takes a photo of a paper drawing and, in a handful of seconds, creates a fully rigged character that can be used in an animation or little story. It doesn’t use any image-to-video generative AI models. Instead, I built it using the years of insights I’ve picked up studying children’s drawings and character animation. Today we’re releasing a community beta. I respect this community and would value any feedback you offer. It’s easy to try- you don’t need to create an account to check it out. We’ve got several free stories to drop your character into, and a Mother’s…
