@SteffenDE you missed the scheduleTransition = true; inside the window.addEventListener("phx:start-view-transition", (e) => {, then it's good.
Thanks for updating it 👍

@spicychickensauce thanks for double-checking! I also fixed the view transition not triggering in the add / remove events, since I actually relied on it always triggering for that case :D
