Custom Cursor Animation

If you want to apply a custom cursor animation, set the cursor prop to false (which prevents any default css-styles from being applied) and set a custom className prop to the TypeAnimation component with your own css styles.

These are the base styles for the cursor animation:

.type::after {
  content: '|';
  animation: cursor 1.1s infinite step-start;
}

@keyframes cursor {
  50% {
    opacity: 0;
  }
}

If you want to modify the styles, simply make a styles.css file, copy and modify the styles and pass the prop className="type" to apply the custom styles.

If you would like the cursor to stop after a specific time, consider using a JSX styling library which lets you define CSS dynamically within your JSX Component, or simply replace infnite with a static finite number (like 2s) inside your custom css file.
