react-smooth

What is react-smooth?

The react-smooth package provides a set of tools to implement smooth animations in React applications. It allows developers to animate the appearance, disappearance, and property changes of components with ease. The package offers a high-level API for common animations, making it straightforward to add smooth transitions without delving into the complexities of animation libraries.

What are react-smooth's main functionalities?

Fade In Animation

This feature allows elements to fade in smoothly. The `fadeIn` component wraps any content that should appear with a fading effect.

import { fadeIn } from 'react-smooth';

function FadeInExample() {
  return (
    <fadeIn>
      <div>Content to fade in</div>
    </fadeIn>
  );
}

Animate on Property Change

This feature enables animation between different states based on property changes. The `Animate` component is used to transition between a start and end state, such as changing the opacity.

import { Animate } from 'react-smooth';

function AnimateOnChangeExample() {
  return (
    <Animate start={{ opacity: 0 }} end={{ opacity: 1 }}>
      <div>Content that changes opacity</div>
    </Animate>
  );
}

Other packages similar to react-smooth

react-motion

React-motion is a popular library for animations in React. It offers a powerful spring configuration to create fluid animations. Compared to react-smooth, react-motion provides more control over the physics of the animations, making it suitable for complex animations but potentially overkill for simple fades or transitions.

react-spring

React-spring is another animation library for React that focuses on spring physics to create natural motion. It supports a wide range of animations, including transitions, parallax effects, and more. React-spring is similar to react-smooth in ease of use but offers more extensive customization options and supports more complex animations.

Usage

ordinary animation

<Animate to="0" attributeName="opacity">
  <div />
</Animate>

steps animation

const steps = [{
  style: {
    opacity: 0,
  },
  moment: 400,
}, {
  style: {
    opacity: 1,
    transform: 'translate(0, 0)',
  },
  moment: 1000,
}, {
  style: {
    transform: 'translate(100px, 100px)',
  },
  moment: 1200,
}];

<Animate steps={steps}>
  <div />
</Animate>

children can be a function

<Animate from={{ opacity: 0 }}
  to={{ opacity: 1 }}
  easing="ease-in"
  >
  {
    ({ opacity }) => <div style={{ opacity }}></div>
  }
</Animate>

you can configure js timing function

const easing = configureBezier(0.1, 0.1, 0.5, 0.8);
const easing = configureSpring({ stiff: 170, damping: 20 });

group animation

const appear = {
  from: 0,
  to: 1,
  attributeName: 'opacity',
};

const leave = {
  steps: [{
    moment: 0,
    style: {
      transform: 'translateX(0)',
    },
  }, {
    moment: 1000,
    style: {
      transform: 'translateX(300)',
      height: 50,
    },
  }, {
    moment: 2000,
    style: {
      height: 0,
    },
  }]
}

<AnimateGroup appear={appear} leave={leave}>
  { list }
</AnimateGroup>
