    progress.target = progress.current === 0 ? 1 : 0;
};
</script>

<TextAnimation

Props

Examples

Basic Font Weight Animation

<TextAnimation
    text="Dynamic Weight"
    progress={progress}
    styleCallback={(i) => `font-weight: ${map(i, 200, 900)}`}
/>

Color Animation

<TextAnimation
    text="Color Fade"
    progress={progress}
    styleCallback={(i) => `color: rgba(255, 0, 0, ${i})`}

Advanced Variable Font Animation with Optimized Performance

<script>
import { Tween } from 'svelte/motion';
import { cubicInOut } from 'svelte/easing';
import TextAnimation, { map } from 'svelte-text-animation';

const progress = new Tween(0, { 
    duration: 3800, 
    easing: cubicInOut 
});

// Auto animation
progress.target = 1;
setInterval(() => (progress.target = progress.target == 0 ? 1 : 0), 4300);
</script>
