Transitions

This package comes with a set of animated transitions out of the box. ReactTransitions.Transitions makes a list of their names. Each name is a string to be supplied to transition prop of ReactTransitions.

Here are a few of the names for illustration:

• "move-to-left-move-from-right",
• "fade-move-from-right",
• "scale-down-move-from-right",
• "rotate-right-side-first-move-from-right"

There are some more options ready for you. Either make use of the demo page to see the full list, or dump the contents of ReactTransitions.Transitions which should always be up-to-date.
