Shape-driven animation logic respects SVG component structure¶
Insight: Vibe animation effectiveness depends on categorizing SVG shapes into natural animation patterns (linear arrays, radial symmetry, paths/spirals) and applying animations that respect each shape's inherent structure. AI systems can efficiently generate 20+ viable animation permutations when guided by shape semantics rather than generic animation libraries.
Detail: The principle states: 'Animations should respect the shape's natural structure.' For example, vertical drops suit bar charts since they're grounded at the bottom, but feel unnatural for radial designs. This demonstrates AI's ability to scale animation permutations across icon libraries systematically.
