Description

The Animator currently expect a delta time. I find this a bit awkward to use (obviously opinionated). In my application I want to have a slider to control the animation and my suggestion would be to have an absolute animation time instead of the progress() function.

Just a suggestion. For now I will just implement my own animator (which is simple enough to implement)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the Animator's current implementation of delta time usage and the progress() function. Then add a method that accepts an absolute time value instead, allowing animation control via a slider.
