How to add smoothly changing text with JavaScript?
To add smoothly changing text with JavaScript, we can call the animate method on an element.
For instance, we write:
<p>
hello
</p>
to add a p element.
Then we write:
const p = document.querySelector('p')
p.animate([{
transform: 'translate(100px, -100%)'
},
{
transform: 'translate(300px, 200px)'
}
], 1500);
to select the p element with document.querySelector.
Then we call p.animate with an array of CSS rule objects to set how to animate the p element.
It’ll animate according to the CSS rules listed in the same order they’re listed.
The 2nd argument is the duration in milliseconds.
As a result, we see ‘hello’ slides from to left to bottom right.
