Apply animation in React JS

by vsasikalabe Updated: Jan 24, 2023

The easiest way to implement animations with CSS is using the transition property.The animationIn and animationout will perform fadeInleft and fadeoutleft operation.Next we have to list out our all items.The class selection operation started using constructor.this.state will give us current state value.When visible animation is true the listed items are getting shown based on the button click.The remove item will perform the delete operation so that the visible items are getting hide.This will go on by some moving shadow animation.This animation give us clear visible on the given item.

Preview of the output that you will get on running this code from your IDE.

In this solution we use the React library.

addSelection(item) {
    const exists = this.state.selection.find(i => i.id === item.id);
    if (exists === undefined) {
      this.setState({
        selection: [...this.state.selection, item],
        [`visibleAnimate${item.id}`]: true
      });
    }
  }

  removeItem(item) {
    this.setState(
      {
        [`visibleAnimate${item.id}`]: false
        // selection: this.state.selection.filter(i => i.id !== item.id)
      },
      () => {
        setTimeout(() => {
          this.setState({
            selection: this.state.selection.filter(i => i.id !== item.id)
          });
        }, 300);
      }
    );
  }

Instructions

Follow the steps carefully to get the output easily.

Install the Node.js and React on your IDE(preferable Visual Studio Code).
Create React Application using npx create-react-app foldername.
cd foldername.
npm i react-animated-css.
Open the folder in IDE.
Copy the code using "copy" button above and paste it in Index.js file(remove the earlier code from Index.js).
Import ReactDOM,React Component and react animated css.(refer DEMO for additional code)
Open the terminal from IDE.
npm start to run the file.

You can also refer this url DEMO for getting the above output.
