Naming Convention — Names follow the Webflow component-property pattern: ElementType-AnimationName.
Designers specify the animation name; developers implement using GSAP gsap.to() / gsap.fromTo() on mouseenter / mouseleave events.
All durations default to 0.35s with ease: "power2.out" unless noted. Bounce variants use ease: "back.out(1.7)".
