To create an animation with loop stop and mouse over interaction, similar to the one on www.revolut.com, using Webflow, follow these steps:

  1. Create a new project: Start by creating a new project in Webflow or open an existing project in the designer.

  2. Add a div block: Insert a div block onto the canvas. This will serve as the container for your animation.

  3. Set up the layout: Set up the layout of the container div block as desired. Add any content or additional elements that you want to animate.

  4. Create the initial animation: Select the container div block and navigate to the "Animations" panel in the right sidebar. Click on the "+" icon to create a new animation.

  5. Set up the loop: In the animation panel, you can set up the loop by specifying a duration for the animation and selecting the "loop" option.

  6. Configure the initial state of the animation: Set up the initial state of the animation by applying transforms, opacity, or any other properties you want to animate. You can use the "Transforms" and "Opacity" sections in the animation panel to adjust these properties.

  7. Create the hover interaction: To add the mouse-over interaction, go to the "Interactions" panel in the top toolbar and click on the "+" icon to create a new interaction.

  8. Select the trigger: In the interaction panel, select the trigger "Mouse Cursor" and choose the "Hover" option. This will activate the animation when the mouse hovers over the container div block.

  9. Add actions: In the "Actions" section of the interaction panel, click on the "+" icon to add actions. Select the "Start Animation" action and choose the animation you created in step 4.

  10. Test and refine: Preview your animation by going to the preview mode and hovering over the container div block. Make any necessary adjustments to the animation or interaction settings to achieve the desired effect.

Remember to optimize your animation for performance by keeping it lightweight and avoiding excessive use of large media files. Also, consider optimizing your animation for search engines by providing relevant metadata and descriptive content.
