Why Choose Fixie?

Ceaser is a well-established CSS easing tool that has served the web development community since the early days of CSS3 transitions. It provides a visual interface for adjusting Bezier curve handles and includes a comprehensive library of Penner Easing Equations — presets like easeInQuad, easeOutCubic, easeInOutBack, and more. The workflow is straightforward: choose an easing, test it, adjust if needed, then copy code.

The main limitation is comparison: Ceaser shows one easing at a time. You have to switch between presets sequentially to compare how they differ, which slows down the selection process when you're evaluating multiple options.

Fixie's CSS Easing Function Visualizer includes the same Penner Easing Equations and custom curve editing with an added comparison mode. You can see multiple easing curves simultaneously with synchronized animation previews, making it faster to pick the right timing function. Both tools support touch devices, are completely free, and generate identical CSS output. Ceaser is a proven, straightforward tool. Fixie adds comparison features for a faster evaluation workflow.
