Timid Snackbar animation

Think of a bird turning its head, the way a cat walks, the way a compact car moves or even the a single wheel rolling downhill. Motion makes the personality of something. And beautiful motion thoughtfully garnished over an interface is promised to give a lasting experience. :)

I recently built this snackbar on a project. It jumps in from the bottom. Grabs attention playfully that way. Then slowly moves away after a few seconds. Like a scared cat moves away after you've been staring at it. And finally slides out to exit. Cat jumps! 🐈

Earlier, on the older system, status messages felt like a dead end on a road.

With the snackbar, it now feels like a gentle nudge to the person using the system.
