Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

The new View Transitions API in Chrome and Safari makes web animations easier. For example, a navigation animation can be created using only HTML, CSS, and a few lines of JavaScript. The process involves using `startViewTransition` to smoothly transition between DOM states, along with CSS to style the transitions and `view-transition-name` to target specific elements for animation.
