typeflow-Vue

This package contains a single component 'TypeFlow' which aims to provide a wrapper for any given HTML element that has text within it in Vue. It takes the text and applies a typing effect to it. It has some configuration for the speed of the effect, as well as the ability to control pauses for individual characters (i.e punctuation).

There is some variable delay on the effect for every character, with more randomisation on spaces and longer delays on puctuation.

To see it running

• Clone the repo
• run the following in terminal:

cd example
npm i
npm start

• open your browser with the designated localhost port, usually localhost:1234 in this instance.

Implementation example

For a live example refer to example/index.tsx, or include in a Vue component as so:

import {TypeFlow} from 'typeflow-Vue'

export const coolNewVueComponent = () => {

  // code goes here

  return (<>
    <TypeFlow>
      <p>
        This is some awesome placeholder text, watch it render in style!
      </p>
    </TypeFlow>
  </>)
}

To build the package locally

Make sure you are in the root of the repo, then run:

npm i
npm run build

Or you can run it in watch mode if you want to build on the fly with npm start. This will rebuild the package every time you save the relevant file in src.

More info

This package was built for npm using tsdx, it's designed for use with Vue and Typescript on my own projects but available for free on npm.
