Miguel Ángel 4de054e7d4 fix(studio): make GSAP tween editing work on real compositions (#1115)
The Design-panel GSAP editor only recognized tweens written as
tl.to(".selector", {...}) with inline string-literal targets, in a
contiguous block, with no interleaved setup. Every scaffolded
composition instead targets tweens through element variables
(const kicker = root.querySelector(".kicker"); tl.to(kicker, {...})),
wraps the script in an IIFE, and interleaves gsap.set() calls — so the
parser returned zero animations and the panel was inert.

Three coordinated fixes make it work end to end:

- Parser read: resolve querySelector / querySelectorAll / getElementById
  variable targets (and inline lookup calls) back to their CSS selector,
  so variable-targeted tweens are recognized.

- Parser write: replace the full re-serialize (preamble + tweens +
  postamble) with in-place recast AST mutation. Edits now touch only the
  targeted tween's vars/position node and reprint, preserving every
  surrounding statement — gsap.set calls, element declarations, the IIFE
  wrapper, comments and formatting. Previously the first edit would
  discard all of that.

- Linter: build overlap/clip windows directly from the parser's
  structured animations instead of a regex walk paired positionally with
  the parsed list. The old pairing skipped variable targets and would
  drift once the parser started returning them. Removes the now-dead
  regex meta helpers.

- studio-api: extractGsapScriptBlock now searches inside <template>
  content (sub-compositions wrap markup + the GSAP script in a template,
  which linkedom's querySelectorAll doesn't descend into), and the
  frontend matches tweens to the selected element by id OR selector
  rather than id only (class-targeted elements have no id).

Verified end to end against a real 10-scene project: all compositions
now parse (previously 0), the panel populates editable tween cards, and
property/duration/ease edits round-trip while leaving the rest of the
script byte-for-byte intact.

@hyperframes/studio

Browser-based composition editor UI for Hyperframes. Provides a visual timeline, code editor, and live preview for building video compositions.

Install

npm install @hyperframes/studio

What it does

The studio is a React application with:

  • Visual timeline — drag, resize, and arrange elements on tracks
  • Code editor — edit HTML and GSAP scripts with CodeMirror (syntax highlighting, autocomplete)
  • Live preview — see changes in real time as you edit
  • Composition inspector — view and modify element properties

Development

The studio is embedded in the hyperframes preview command. To develop the studio UI itself:

cd packages/studio
bun run dev        # Start Vite dev server
bun run build      # Build for production
bun run typecheck  # Type-check

Tech stack

  • React 18/19, Zustand (state management)
  • CodeMirror 6 (editor)
  • Tailwind CSS (styling)
  • Vite (bundler)
  • Phosphor Icons
