# Flip Art
|
||||
|
||||
**Tier:** 2-Intermediate
|
||||
|
||||
Many developers have found that adding animation to an application is a
|
||||
useful technique add impact to the UI, to make it more appealing to its users,
|
||||
and to explain complex subject matter. But, as a developer how do you create
|
||||
these and how do you know what images make effective animations?
|
||||
|
||||
The objective of the Flip Art app is to address both of these needs by
|
||||
providing a simple way to collect and arrange a set of images into an
|
||||
animated sequence that can be replayed and adjusted to achieve the desired
|
||||
impact and effect.
