Wotcher TAG!

I'm requesting a TAG review of View Transitions.

View Transitions is a proposal for a new web API that allows a simple set of transition animations in both Single-Page Applications (SPAs) and Multi-Page Applications (MPAs).

The inspiration for this feature are transitions similar to the ones listed in the Material Design Principles. The intent is to support transitions similar to Android Activity Transitions.
