Stop trying to prove yourself right

Write it three times

[{"selector":"#anim-6e36fc45-7d05-4ba2-ba0d-7c8b0fd429ca","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2aeba25c-39fa-4c65-bda6-00cef94cd0f0","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.18988%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Read code

[{"selector":"#anim-2adb2d2c-8364-47e9-80e0-fcf801f73cad","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-db603bdf-dc96-43eb-ab5b-90a6243623db","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(115.18987%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Write code, and not just as assignments

[{"selector":"#anim-c7e89554-4570-41aa-9c29-3328832f2f25","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c96a6341-6317-4524-af57-716867f06efd","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 126.58552%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Work one-on-one with other developers any way you can

Learn techniques, not tools
