✨ Tailwind Motion ✨

Tailwind Motion is a Tailwind CSS Plugin made at RomboHQ. It’s a simple, yet powerful, animation library with a simple syntax.

Motion, without commotion.

1. Install npm package

npm i -d tailwindcss-motion

2. Add into your tailwind.config.js

// tailwind.config.js

export default {
     theme: {
        extend: {...},
    },
   plugins: [require('tailwindcss-motion')],
};

We provide a simple syntax to animate any element in your Tailwind project. Instead of defining custom keyframes, we provide utility classes to animate every dimension, inline.

For example, for a slide and fade effect — you simply need motion-translate-x-in-25 motion-opacity-in-0 or, you can use one of our presets with motion-preset-fade

We provide a collection of presets to animate your components easily:

• Fade: motion-preset-fade
• Slide:
  • Right: motion-preset-slide-right
  • Left: motion-preset-slide-left
  • Up: motion-preset-slide-up
  • Down: motion-preset-slide-down
• Focus: motion-preset-focus
• Blur:
  • Right: motion-preset-blur-right
  • Left: motion-preset-blur-left
  • Up: motion-preset-blur-up
  • Down: motion-preset-blur-down
• Bounce: motion-preset-bounce
• Expand: motion-preset-expand
• Shrink: motion-preset-shrink
• Pop: motion-preset-pop
• Compress: motion-preset-compress
• Shake: motion-preset-shake
• Wiggle: motion-preset-wiggle
• Confetti: motion-preset-confetti
• Typewriter: motion-preset-typewriter-[number of characters]
• Flomoji: motion-preset-flomoji

You can further customize presets using base animations and modifiers classes.

For example:

• Add a delay to motion-preset-fade:

<div class="motion-preset-fade motion-delay-500"></div>

• Adjust the duration of motion-preset-slide-right:

<div class="motion-preset-slide-right motion-duration-2000"></div>

• Increase the height of motion-preset-bounce:

<div class="motion-preset-bounce -motion-translate-y-in-150"></div>

Appart from presets, you can create your own custom animations by combining these base classes:

• Fade In: motion-opacity-in-0
• Slide In:
  • From below: motion-translate-y-in-100
  • From above: -motion-translate-y-in-100
• Scale In: motion-scale-in-75
• Rotate In:
  • From 180 degrees: motion-rotate-in-180
  • From -90 degrees: -motion-rotate-in-90
• Blur In: motion-blur-in-sm
• Grayscale In: motion-grayscale-in
• Background Color Change: motion-bg-in-red-500
• Text Color Change: motion-text-in-blue-500

You can combine multiple animations on a single element:

<div
  class="motion-scale-in-75 motion-translate-y-in-100 motion-rotate-in-90"
></div>

For exit animations, simply replace in with out in the class name.

You can customize the duration, delay, and timing function of any animation.

• Duration: motion-duration-500
• Delay: motion-delay-500
• Timing Function: motion-timing-spring-bouncy

For example:

<div
  class="motion-duration-2000 motion-rotate-in-180 motion-opacity-in-0"
></div>

This applies a duration of 2000ms to both the rotation and opacity animations.

You can apply modifiers to specific properties using a slash /.

For example:

<div
  class="motion-delay-500/rotate motion-rotate-in-180 motion-opacity-in-0"
></div>

Here, the delay of 500ms is applied only to the rotation, not the opacity.

The plugin includes custom timing functions:

a few examples are:

• motion-ease-spring-smooth
• motion-ease-spring-snappy
• motion-ease-spring-bouncy
• motion-ease-spring-bounciest
• motion-ease-bounce
• motion-ease-bounce
• motion-ease-in-quart
