Aerotwist - FLIP Your Animations

I’ve come to love FLIP as a way of thinking about animations, because it’s a good match of JavaScript and CSS. Calculate in JavaScript, but let CSS handle the animations for you. You don’t have to use CSS to do the animations, though, you could just as easily use the Web Animations API or JavaScript itself, whatever’s easiest. The main point is that you’re reducing the per-frame complexity and cost (which normally means transform and opacity) to try and give the user the best possible experience.

GreenSock | GSAP

GSAP is a suite of tools for scripted, high-performance HTML5 animations that work in all major browsers. No other library delivers such advanced sequencing, API efficiency, and tight control. Stop wrestling with cumbersome CSS animations, stuttery jQuery.animate() calls, or a system that limits your creativity. Use animation to tell a story in a rich way rather than settling for a few fades and slides. Animating with code may seem intimidating at first, but don’t worry, our platform was engineered to make it simple and intuitive.

requestAnimationFrame for smart animating « Paul Irish

In your animation work, you've used a timer loop to make changes every few milliseconds. Good for us: browser vendors have decided, "hey, why don't we just give you an API for that, because we can probably optimize some things for you." So it's basic API for use with animation, whether that be DOM-based styling changes, canvas or WebGL.
