In plain English

This repository is the source code for easings.net, a reference website that helps developers choose the right easing function for animations. Easing functions control how something moves over time: whether it speeds up, slows down, bounces, or follows some other curve. The site presents these functions as a visual cheat sheet so you can quickly compare them and pick one that fits what you are building. The README is brief and focused on contributors rather than end users. It explains how to fork the project, translate the site into other languages by copying a YAML file and filling in the translations, and how to run a local development server using Yarn. The actual content of the site, meaning the explanations and interactive examples of each easing function, is not described in the README itself. The project is sponsored by Evil Martians, a software consultancy. If you are looking to use the site rather than contribute to it, the live version is at easings.net. If you want to add a translation or fix something in the code, the README points to standard GitHub contribution steps.
