React Animation

This is a free React component—no sign-up or license required.

The React Animation Component, part of KendoReact, delivers a set of features such as:

• Types—The Animation components animate their content by using various animation effects (Fade, Expand, Push, Reveal, Slide and Zoom).
• Disabled animations—The Animations allow you to enable or disable their showing or hiding effect.
• Stacked animations—All Animations extend the Animation component. However, the Push and Zoom Animations further extend Animation by using the stackChildren options and enable you to stack animations.
• Life-cycle hooks—When you declaratively add or remove a child element, all Animations call specific hooks during the entering or exiting of the element.
• Duration—All Animation types enable you to control the duration of the entering and exiting animation effects.
• Direction—Except for the Fade Animation, the Animations provide a set of the predefined directions which allow you to control their entering and exiting effect
• Exiting child components—While an exiting child component is rendered because it still exists in the React Virtual DOM, it is no longer available in the DOM.
• Theme support—The KendoReact Animation, as well as all 100+ components in the KendoReact suite, are styled in three polished themes (Bootstrap, Material, and Default) and can be further customized to match your specific design guidelines.

How to use the Animation component in your apps:

import { Slide, Push, Expand, Fade, Zoom, Reveal } from '@progress/kendo-react-animation'; // Import one or more of the available animations based on the design needs of your app.
...
/**
* Handle the logic around when and how the animation is triggered. Use events and life-cycle hooks.
*/
...
<Fade>
    /**
    * Wrap the component that you want to animate with the respective animation type tags.
    */
</Fade>
