Description
Hello Animation is a lightweight Elementor theme built for motion, and the companion theme for the Animation Addons for Elementor plugin. Its header, footer, banner and blog layouts are made to sit under that plugin's GSAP scroll, hover and page-load animations, so an animated starter template imports and works without extra setup. It is a complete blog theme on its own too: self-hosted DM Sans and Space Grotesk, conditional stylesheets, no jQuery dependency, threaded comments, four footer widget areas and a left, right or centred sidebar. Suited to animated agency, portfolio, business and blog sites.
