SKN Framer Motion Type Extension Library

TypeScript React

Introduction:

This is a simple TypeScript Type Extension Library for Framer Motion 11, React 18 & also for Next.js 14

I made this library so that I can use it in all of my Next.js 14 projects without writing the same codes over and over again

Details:

Anime Type

• It provides total intellisense of framer motion styles in separate files to be used as variants
• This type will help to de-clutter your jsx/tsx components because you can create variants outside motion components and later use it inside the motion components
• This type will only work on motion components like motion.div, motion.span, motion.main etc. or any other custom motion components created with motion() function
• For usage instruction, see Usage section

CsxAnime Type

• It provides total intellisense of react csx styles in separate files and ensures compatibility with framer motion styles as well
• This type will help to de-clutter your jsx/tsx components because you can create csx styles outside motion components
• This type will only work on motion components like motion.div, motion.span, motion.main etc. or any other custom motion components created with motion() function
• For usage instruction, see Usage section

Use Case:

• React
• Next.js

Requirements:

This library has peer dependency for React & React DOM of minimum 18.3.1. It may or may not work on 19.x

It has peer dependency for Framer Motion of minimum 11.2.11. It may or may not work on 12.x

This library is intended to be used in Next.js of minimum 14.2.3. It may or may not work on 15.x

• 💀 Minimum react Version: 18.3.1
• 💀 Minimum @types/react Version: 18.3.3
• 💀 Minimum react-dom Version: 18.3.1
• 💀 Minimum @types/react-dom Version: 18.3.0
• 💀 Minimum next Version: 14.2.3
• 💀 Minimum framer-motion Version: 11.2.11

Complementary Libraries:

• @best-skn/react-types
• @best-skn/next-types

Usage:

To install the package, type the following in console

npm add -D @best-skn/framer-types
#or
yarn add -D @best-skn/framer-types
#or
pnpm add -D @best-skn/framer-types
#or
bun add -D @best-skn/framer-types

Create a directory called types in the root location of your project, and create a file called motion.d.ts, then do this

import "@best-skn/framer-types";

Check your tsconfig.json if includes property has **/*.ts, **/*.tsx otherwise the type definition file may not work

Now Inside your Next.js 14 Project, use the package like this (Just an example)

Anime Type:

(1) Motion style variants in separate file

import type { Anime } from "framer-motion";

type key = "container" | "box"; // * Create variant names here

export const anime: Anime<key> = {
  //* You'll get total intellisense for `variant` names
  container: {
    //* You'll get intellisense for motion styles inside `hidden` or `visible` properties
    hidden: {
      opacity: 0,
      //* other motion styles here...
    },
    visible: {
      opacity: 1,
      //* other motion styles here...
    },
  },
  box: {
    hidden: {
      opacity: 0,
      //* other motion styles here...
    },
    visible: {
      opacity: 1,
      //* other motion styles here...
    },
  },
};

(2) Import & use the created variants inside motion components in Next.js

"use client"

import { motion } from "framer-motion";
import { anime } from "./anime.ts";

const HomeComponent: React.FC<unknown> = () => {
  return (
    <motion.div
      variants={anime.container} //* Put your variants here
      initial="hidden"
      animate="visible"
    >
      <motion.div
        variants={anime.box} //* Put your variants here
        initial="hidden"
        animate="visible"
      >
        <!-- other elements here... -->
      </motion.div>
    </motion.div>
  );
};

export default HomeComponent;

CsxAnime Type:

(1) React CSX styles with motion style compatibility in separate file

import type { CsxAnime } from "framer-motion";

type key = "container" | "box"; // * Create class names here

export const csx: CsxAnime<key> = {
  //* You'll get total intellisense for `class` names
  container: {
    //* You'll get intellisense for react css styles here
    fontWeight: "bolder",
    //* css styles here...

    //* framer motion related styles
    scaleX: "",
  },
  box: {
    fontWeight: "bolder",
    //* css styles here...

    //* framer motion related styles
    scaleX: "",
  },
};

(2) Import & use the created style inside motion components in Next.js

"use client"

import { motion } from "framer-motion";
import { csx } from "./csx.ts";

const HomeComponent: React.FC<unknown> = () => {
  return (
    <motion.div className={csx.container}>
      <motion.div className={csx.box}>
        <!-- other elements here... -->
      </motion.div>
    </motion.div>
  );
};

export default HomeComponent;
