 A view that isn't loaded yet takes its first absolute keyframe right away and plays once it's on screen. Calling `animate(title, 'fadeInUp')` in `onMounted` doesn't flash the title before it fades in. Relative animations leave the view's values alone until it loads.
 
+## Vue
+
+```vue
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import { JoltTransition, vAnimate, vPress } from '@rafaelaugusto/jolt/vue'
+</script>
+
+<template>
+  <Label v-animate="'fadeInUp'" text="Hello" />

+  <JoltTransition enter="popIn" leave="fadeOut">
+    <Label v-if="saved" text="Saved" />
+  </JoltTransition>
+</template>
+```
+
+`@rafaelaugusto/jolt/vue` is a separate entry point for NativeScript-Vue 3, so the core stays framework free. `v-animate` plays when the element mounts and again when its value changes, `v-press` is `press()` for templates, and `JoltTransition` wraps Vue's `BaseTransition` so a view can animate out before `v-if` removes it. Register everything with `app.use(Jolt)` or import what a component needs. See the [Vue guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/vue).
+
+## Motion along a path
+
+```ts
+animate(
+  plane,
+  { path: 'M0 0 C80 -120 200 -120 280 0', orient: true },
+  { duration: 1200, ease: 'linear' },
+)
+```
+
+SVG coordinates are translations in DIPs. `orient: true` aligns artwork facing +X with the forward tangent. One shared progression drives native `x`, `y` and optional `rotate` tracks, with arc-length sampling, tweens, springs, delay, repeats, stagger, relative offsets and playback controls. Paths own those coordinates; use a `path` transition override to time them together. Parsing and sampling happen once; no JavaScript runs per frame. See the [path guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/paths) for SVG commands, orientation and geometry limits.
+
+## Corners, borders and shadows
+
+```ts
+animate(card, { borderRadius: 40, borderWidth: 6 }, { duration: 800 })
+```
+
+Uniform circular borders work on iOS and Android. On iOS, configure one outer `boxShadow` and animate `shadowOpacity`, `shadowRadius` (half Core's CSS blur radius), `shadowOffsetX` and `shadowOffsetY`. On Android, animate `elevation` and `translationZ` for native shadows. Dimensions use DIPs; interruption, springs, repeats and selective stop work as usual. Border width animates the stroke while content uses the final layout. Clip paths, nonuniform geometry and Android radius changes with CSS shadows are rejected. Rebuild Android after upgrading. See the [guide and platform limits](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/decorations).
+
+## Colors
+
+```ts
+animate(
+  card,
+  {
+    backgroundColor: '#263b27',
+    borderColor: ['#b6ee64', '#e5a1ff'],
+    color: '#f4caff',
+  },
+  { duration: 800 },
+)
+```
+
+Color strings and NativeScript `Color` objects work as targets or keyframes; `null` starts from the visible color. Colors interpolate in premultiplied OKLab and stay absolute with `relative: true`. Interruptions, repeats and `stop(card, ['backgroundColor'])` use the same API as transforms. Colors default to a 300 ms tween.
+
+`borderColor` requires the same starting color on every edge; widths and corner radii may differ. Text color supports Label and Button on iOS, and TextBase on Android. Explicit formatted-span colors stay intact. On iOS, text uses a native alpha-mask layer preserving UILabel's layout; emoji, attachments, text shadows and masks above four million pixels keep the final model color and resolve `false`. Edits, restyling and unloading cancel text playback and restore the current text. Gradients and images themselves are not interpolated. iOS background-color playback on an image background is skipped to preserve Core’s rasterized image; the final model color is applied. See the [color guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/colors).
+
+Android includes a Java animation target; rebuild the native app after installing or upgrading Jolt.
+
+## Gradients
+
+```ts
+import { gradient } from '@rafaelaugusto/jolt'
+
+const glow = gradient(card, {
+  type: 'radial',
+  colors: ['#A78BFA', '#0F172A'],
+  radius: 0.45,
+})
+glow.animate({ center: { x: 0.7, y: 0.7 }, radius: 0.9 }, { duration: 1400 })
+```
+
+Native linear, radial and conic gradients behind a layout's children, which NativeScript's CSS doesn't have beyond a static `linear-gradient`. Colors, stops, angle, center and radius animate with springs, tweens and repeats: a `CAGradientLayer` with Core Animation keyframes on iOS, a native drawable and animator on Android. Rebuild Android after upgrading. See the [guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/gradients).

Or describe it with `stiffness`, `damping` and `mass`. A spring starts with the velocity of the animation it interrupts, unless you pass `velocity` (units per second).

+
+Takes a NativeScript `Image` with a `sys://` source, or a ref holding one. Supports `bounce`, `pulse`, `scale` and `variableColor`, with native playback, completion and cancellation. Replacement keeps the Image's source in sync. Scale holds until stopped; bounce, pulse and variable color can repeat with `{ repeat: true }`.
+
+Effects require iOS 17+. Earlier iOS versions and Reduce Motion skip decorative effects and replace icons immediately. Android calls resolve with `false` without changing the image. See [SF Symbol effects](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/symbol-effects) for options and lifecycle behavior.
+

+```ts
+import { shimmer } from '@rafaelaugusto/jolt'
+
+const stopShimmer = shimmer(placeholder, { duration: 1500 })
+stopShimmer() // when the content is ready
+```
+
+A native gradient mask sweeps across the placeholder and its children. It follows layout changes, preserves existing masks and releases native resources while the view is unloaded, resuming on load. Reduce Motion keeps the placeholder static. iOS only for now; Android calls return a no-op cleanup function. See the [shimmer guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/shimmer).
+
+## Liquid images

+const flow = liquid(orb, { intensity: 0.9, duration: 7200 })
+flow.pause()
+flow.resume()
+flow.stop()
+```
+
+Parts of the image move relative to each other through a native repeating texture warp. Transparency and stretch are preserved; pause freezes the current shape and stop restores the original image. Reduce Motion keeps the image static. iOS only; Android returns an inert handle. See the [liquid image guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/liquid).
+
+## Loaders
+
+```ts
+import { loader } from '@rafaelaugusto/jolt'
+
+const stopLoading = loader(slot, { style: 'dots', color: '#71717a', size: 48 })
+stopLoading() // when the content is ready
+```
+
+Choose `dots`, `bars` or `ring`. Each indicator uses one native animation replicated across a layer, fits inside its target and stays centered as the target resizes. Reduce Motion shows a static indicator. Unloading releases native resources; loading resumes until explicitly stopped. iOS only for now. See the [loaders guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/loaders).
+
+## Circular reveal

+
+await reveal(details, { from: { x: 40, y: 40 }, duration: 500 })
+await conceal(details, { to: { x: 40, y: 40 } })
+```
+
+A native circle reveals the view's content or contracts to hide it. Reversing continues from the circle on screen. Existing masks are restored when the effect ends; conceal finishes with `visibility = 'hidden'`, preserving layout space. Reduce Motion applies the final visibility immediately. iOS only for now. See the [circular reveal guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/reveal) for cancellation and layout behavior.
+
+## Text
+
+```ts
+import { animateText } from '@rafaelaugusto/jolt'
+
+await animateText(title)
+await animateText(title, { by: 'word', stagger: 100 })
+```
+
+Reveal a Label letter by letter or a word at a time. On iOS, TextKit keeps the complete text layout, including wrapped lines, attributed styles and composed emoji, and Core Animation plays temporary glyph images. On Android, spans that only affect drawing fade and lift each piece under one native animator, keeping the TextView's text, line breaks and truncation. The original Label remains the single accessibility element. Stop restores the full text; Reduce Motion and Android's Remove animations skip the entrance. Rebuild Android apps after upgrading to include the native class. See the [text guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/text) for options and limits.
+
+## Rolling numbers
+
+```ts
+import { rollTo } from '@rafaelaugusto/jolt'
+
+await rollTo(balance, 1249.9, { format: (value) => value.toFixed(2) })
+```
+
+Change a Label's number and only the digits that differ roll: each one slides out while its replacement slides in on a spring. Positions align on the units digit, so `99` becomes `100` by rolling two digits and adding one. The label holds the final text from the first frame; glyph layers on iOS and a native span animator on Android do the drawing, and tabular figures keep the width stable. Rebuild Android after upgrading. See the [rolling numbers guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/rolling) for options and limits.
+
+## Haptics
+
+```ts
+animate(card, { y: 0 }, { type: 'spring', haptic: 'light' })
+animate(button, 'bounce', { haptic: { style: 'light', times: [0.6, 1] } })
+```
+
+Choose `light`, `medium` or `heavy`. By default, one impact fires when the animation visually arrives. Explicit points can mark each landing of a bounce. Delays and stagger follow the animation; interruptions, stopping and unloading cancel pending feedback. iOS only for now. See the [haptics guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/haptics) for timing and device behavior.
+
+## Particles and confetti
+
+```ts
+import { confetti, particles } from '@rafaelaugusto/jolt'

+confetti(button, { count: 80, colors: ['#facc15', '#ef4444', '#3b82f6'] })
+const stopSnow = particles(scene, { source: 'top', angle: 90, velocity: 45 })
+stopSnow() // remove the emitter and its particles
+```
+
+Confetti bursts into the target's window and cleans itself up. `particles()` adds an emitter to the view for snow, sparks, bubbles or other effects. Both use Core Animation without JavaScript per frame, respect Reduce Motion and stop on unload. iOS only for now. See the [particles guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/particles).
+
+## Scroll-linked animations
+
+```ts
+import { scrollLinked } from '@rafaelaugusto/jolt'

+const unlink = scrollLinked(
+  scrollView,
+  header,
+  { y: [0, -60], opacity: [1, 0] },
+  { range: [0, 120] },
+)
+```
+
+A paused native animation follows the ScrollView offset in DIPs, with linear interpolation and clamped progress. Scrolling backward restores earlier frames. Use `axis: 'x'` for horizontal scrolling; descending ranges reverse the mapping. `unlink()` freezes the current frame and removes the binding; unloading either view also cleans it up. Scroll events update progress through JavaScript, so this binding needs the main thread to remain available. See the [guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/scroll-linked).
+
+## Follow the keyboard
+
+```ts
+import { followKeyboard } from '@rafaelaugusto/jolt'
+
+const release = followKeyboard(composer)
+```
+
+The view rises by exactly the distance the keyboard would cover it, with the keyboard's own duration and curve, and settles back when it hides. On iOS the keyboard notifications drive a `UIView` animation; on Android 11+ a native `WindowInsetsAnimation` callback moves the view on every frame, with and without `adjustResize`. The view's `translateY` is written so later animations start from the position on screen. Rebuild Android after upgrading. See the [guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/keyboard).
+
+To react in other ways, `onKeyboard()` reports how much of the window the keyboard covers, with a transition that moves in step with it:
+
+```ts
+const off = onKeyboard(({ visible, transition }) => {
+  animate(header, { scale: visible ? 0.8 : 1 }, transition)
+})
+```
+
+`useKeyboard()` from `/vue` keeps a ref in sync until unmount.
+
+## Pause, play and scrub
+
+```ts
+const animation = animate(card, 'flipInY')
+animation.pause()
+animation.progress = 0.4
+animation.play()
+```
+
+`animate()` and `decay()` return a `PlaybackAnimation` with `pause()`, `play()`, `progress`, `paused` and `duration`. Progress runs from 0 to 1 across delays, repeats and stagger. It preserves the paused/playing state; a paused endpoint can scrub backward. Other animations on the same view keep moving. Infinite loops support pause/play but reject progress. Completed and stopped handles remain terminal. Sequence and effect handles keep their existing controls. See [playback](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/playback) for lifecycle, haptics and gesture examples.
+
+## Time scale and reduced motion
+
+```ts
+import { configure } from '@rafaelaugusto/jolt'
+
+configure({ timeScale: 0.2 }) // everything five times slower
+configure({ reducedMotion: 'always' }) // transforms jump, opacity still fades
+```

+Tuning a spring at full speed is guesswork. The scale applies to every engine animation started after the call, on iOS and Android alike: durations, delays, stagger, sequence positions and spring time stretch together, keyframes stay dense, and an interruption still picks up the value and velocity on screen. Native loops such as shimmer and loaders keep their own timing.
+
+With Reduce Motion on iOS or Remove animations on Android, translations, scale, rotation, paths, decorations and decay jump to their end values while opacity and colors still animate. `'user'` is the default; `'always'` and `'never'` override the platform for the whole library. `reducedMotion()` reads the result, `onReducedMotion(callback)` watches it, and `useReducedMotion()` from `/vue` keeps a ref in sync. See the [guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/configure).

 ## Interrupting and stopping
 
 Starting an animation on a property that's already animating takes it over: the new one starts from the value on screen, with the same velocity, so a card can change its mind halfway without a jump. Other properties of the previous animation keep going.

 If part of an animation is stopped, its `finished` promise resolves with `false` once its remaining properties finish.
 
+`set()` places a view without animating it, and stops whatever animates those properties:
+
+```ts
+set(logo, { opacity: 1, scale: 1, y: 0 })
+```
+
+It takes one value per property, the same properties as `animate()`. The next animation starts from there. See [setting values](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/interrupting#setting-values-without-animating).
+
 ## How it works
 
-When an animation starts, Jolt resolves where each property starts from (the value on screen, or the keyframes you gave), and computes the whole curve: easing, keyframes, spring physics. It samples the curve 60 times per second of motion, and keeps keyframe times exact. Linear segments aren't sampled at all.
+When an animation starts, Jolt resolves where each property starts from (the value on screen, or the keyframes you gave), and computes the whole curve: easing, keyframes, spring physics and exponential decay. It samples the curve 60 times per second of motion, and keeps keyframe times exact. Linear numeric segments use only their endpoints. Long tween segments and free decays cap sampling at 6,001 keyframes. Color tracks add intermediate OKLab samples even with linear timing.
 
 The samples go to the platform in one go:
 
 - **iOS**: a `CAKeyframeAnimation` per property on the view's layer (`opacity`, `transform.translation.x`, `transform.scale.y`, `transform.rotation.z`...). Core Animation composes them, so `x` and `scale` can belong to different animations, and plays them in the render server.
 - **Android**: an `ObjectAnimator` per property with `Keyframe`s and a linear interpolator, on the view's `alpha`, `translationX`, `scaleY`, `rotation`...
 
+Solid [colors](#colors) use CGColor keyframes on iOS and int keyframes through a native Java target on Android. iOS text uses a UILabel alpha mask so glyph positions stay fixed while the color layer animates.
+
 Before playing, the final values are set on the NativeScript view, like `view.animate()` does, so `view.translateX` already holds the target while the animation runs. Stopping writes back the values on screen.
 
-Each running property remembers its curve and start time, so Jolt knows the value and velocity of any property at any moment without asking the platform. That's what lets an interruption pick up the motion where it was. On Android, where an animator starts on the next frame, it reads the value on screen instead.
+Native playback does not isolate Android View animations from a blocked UI thread. Main-runtime JavaScript shares that thread, and `withLayer()` only caches drawing. Move suitable CPU work to a Worker and keep view updates small. See the [busy JavaScript guide](https://jolt.rafaelaugusto.dev/guide/android-performance) and [Android diagnostic](./benchmarks/android-busy.md).
+
+On Android, opacity animations temporarily cache hardware-accelerated containers with children in a hardware layer. Jolt waits for the fade to start and restores the layer on completion, stop, replacement or unload. Existing app-configured layers are preserved; empty, unmeasured and larger-than-screen containers are skipped. See the [fade-layer benchmark](./benchmarks/android-fade.md) for measurement and memory tradeoffs.
+
+Each running property remembers its curve and start time. On Android, interruptions read the displayed value and the animator's current play time, so inherited velocity follows the system's animator duration scale. Early spring arrivals use a native timing marker with completion callbacks only; other sequences advance on native completion. Delays, repeats and disabled animations follow the same platform clock, without JavaScript running per frame.

 ## API
 
-**Animating**: `animate(target, keyframes | preset, transition?)`, `stop(target, properties?)`, `sequence(steps)`, `press(target, pressed?, transition?)`.
+**Animating**: `animate(target, keyframes | preset, transition?)`, `decay(target, velocity, options?)`, `stop(target, properties?)`, `sequence(steps)`, `press(target, pressed?, transition?)`, `drag(target, options?)`, `symbolEffect(image, effect, options?)`, `shimmer(target, options?)`, `liquid(image, options?)`, `loader(target, options?)`, `reveal(target, options?)`, `conceal(target, options?)`, `confetti(target, options?)`, `particles(target, options?)`.
+
+`animateLayout(container, change?, options?)` animates the next layout of direct children; `motionScope().animateLayout()` owns it through component lifecycle. Cancellation settles temporary offsets into the final layout.
+
+`interactionSurface(target)` opts a view/subtree into native touch geometry during animation; returns `{ disposed, dispose() }`. Register before playback; rebuild iOS after upgrading.
 
-**Animations** returned by them: `await`, `finished`, `stop()`.
+`drag()` returns a controller with `position`, `dragging`, `settling`, `cancel()`, `pause()`, `play()` and `dispose()`. `motionScope().drag()` owns it through component lifecycle.
+
+`liquid()` returns a `LiquidEffect` with `pause()`, `resume()` and `stop()`.
+
+**Animations** from `animate()`, `decay()`, `sequence()`, `symbolEffect()`, `reveal()` and `conceal()`: `await`, `finished`, `stop()`. `press()`, `shimmer()`, `loader()`, `confetti()` and `particles()` return cleanup functions.
 
 **Helpers**: `definePreset`, `presets`, `springs`, `cubicBezier`, plus the types (`Keyframes`, `Transition`, `Spring`, `Tween`, `Preset`, `Presets`, `PresetName`, `SpringName`, `Easing`, `Animation`, `Target`...).
