Understanding Vue transitions
Unlike other frameworks, Vue.js provides developers with built-in support for animating Vue.js applications, including transitions and animations. Transitioning is implemented in such a simple manner that developers can easily configure and add it to their applications. The Vue.js transition mechanism supports CSS transitions, programmatic manipulation with JavaScript, and even integration with third-party animation libraries such as GreenSock Animation API (GSAP) or Animate.css.
Before diving into this topic, let’s discuss the difference between transitions and animations. A transition happens when a component (or element) moves from one state to another, such as hovering on a button, navigating from one page to another, displaying a pop-up modal, and so on. Meanwhile, animations are like transitions but are not limited to just two states.
Understanding the basics of transitions will allow you to get started with animations.
