VariableFontAnimator

Variable Font Animator is a highly interactive Framer component that demonstrates the expressive potential of variable fonts through smooth hover animations.

What it does:

• Displays a 4-line paragraph using Roboto Flex (a powerful variable font from Google Fonts).

• On hover, each line independently animates between two font states:

  • From (resting state): Light, upright, wide, small optical size

  • To (hover state): Bold, slanted, condensed, large optical size

• All four variable font axes are animated simultaneously:

  • wght (Weight) — 100 to 900

  • slnt (Slant) — 0 to -10

  • wdth (Width) — 25 to 151

  • opsz (Optical Size) — 8 to 144

Key Features:

• Fully customizable via Framer’s property panel

• Smooth transitions powered by Framer Motion

• Choose from 8 different easing curves (linear, easeOut, circIn, backOut, etc.)

• Adjustable duration (0.05s to 3s)

• Built-in dark/light mode toggle

• Custom accent color

• Real-time axis value display at the bottom showing before → after values

• Each line can be edited individually

Perfect for:

• Showcasing variable font capabilities

• Typography experiments and micro-interactions
