A React component to animate replacing one element with another.
The React CSS Transition Replace component is a powerful tool designed for animating the replacement of elements within a React application. While ReactCSSTransitionGroup provides an effective way to manage animations for lists of components, it falls short in handling container height during the replacement of individual elements. The React CSS Transition Replace addresses this gap, allowing developers to create seamless transitions through an intuitive API.
By utilizing this component, developers can effectively manage the positioning of animated elements while smoothly handling varying content heights. Coupled with fully customizable CSS animations, this component not only enhances visual storytelling but also provides flexibility for sophisticated user experiences.
Automatic Positioning: Handles the positioning of entering and leaving components automatically, ensuring a seamless transition without manual adjustments.
Dynamic Height Adjustment: Smoothly animates changes in height when replacing components of different sizes, accommodating even absolute positioning scenarios.
Configurable Animations: CSS animations are fully configurable, with options for coordinating the timing of entering and leaving components for a polished effect.
Backward Compatibility: Follows a familiar API structure derived from ReactCSSTransitionGroup, making it easy for developers to integrate without a steep learning curve.
Prevent Component Flickering: Allows leaving components to remain rendered during the transition, preventing any potential flickering or glitches in the UI.
Width Animation Support: Optional boolean property enables simultaneous animations for both height and width, appealing for dynamic layouts.
Expansion and Collapsing: Easily manage the visibility of child components, with the ability to animate height changes when adding or removing children.
Wrapper Customization: Each child component is wrapped in a span by default but can be customized, providing flexibility in how elements are rendered during transitions.
