Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Lightweight JavaScript (ES6) tweening library.

NPM

EXAMPLES

DOCUMENTATION

Purpose

Make tweening usage convenient and powerful. There are certain things that we were following while developed this library, we wanted to make it:

  • Lightweight :snowflake: JS Tweening library.

The library is only 8.3 Kb (3Kb gzip)

  • Performant :zap: JS Tweening library.

It uses optimization patterns to speed up & smooth animation.

  • Modern :gem: JS Tweening library

The library is written in ES6, compiled to ES5 for global browsers support and provides ES6 API.

Install

With npm

$ npm install between.js

Or fetch from CDN

<script src="https://rawgit.com/sasha240100/between.js/master/build/between.js"></script>

Basic usage

Module

import Between from 'between.js';

// new Between(from, to).time(duration)
new Between(1, 10).time(1000)
  .on('update', (value) => { // This callback is executed in every frame
      console.log(value);
  });

Or in HTML:

<script src="./path/to/between.js"></script>
<script>
  new Between(1, 10).time(1000)
    .on('update', (value) => {
        console.log(value);
    });
</script>

API

// Constructor
new Between(
 [Number|Object|Array] from, 
 [Number|Object|Array] to
)

// Methods
  .time([Number] duration) // Set duration
  .loop([String] mode, [?Number] repeatTimes) // Set loop mode, if "repeatTimes" is falsy, treats as "endless"
  .easing([Function] easing) // Set easing function
  .on([String] eventName, [Function] callback) // Add event listener
  .pause() // Pauses
  .play() // Resumes

// Getters
  .isPaused // returns true if paused

There is no need to "start" the tween. It is executed immediately once it was created.

Events

import Between from 'between.js';

new Between(1, 10).time(1000)
  .on('update', (value) => {
      console.log(value); 
  })
  .on('start', (value) => {
      console.log(value);
  })
  .on('pause', (value) => {
      console.log(value); 
  })
  .on('play', (value) => {
      console.log(value);
  })
  .on('complete', (value) => {
      console.log(value);
  });

Different values

  • Numbers
  • Arrays
  • Objects

Numbers

import Between from 'between.js';

new Between(1, 10).time(1000)
  .on('update', (value) => {
      console.log(value);
  });

Example

Arrays

import Between from 'between.js';

new Between([1, 5], [10, 10]).time(1000)
  .on('update', (value) => {
      console.log(value);
   });

Example

Objects

import Between from 'between.js';

new Between({x: 2, y: 3, z: 4}, {x: 4, y: 6, z: 10}).time(1000)
  .on('update', (value) => {
      console.log(value);
  });

Example

Looping

Repeat N times

import Between from 'between.js';

new Between(1, 10).time(4000)
  .loop('repeat', N)
  .on('update', (value, {times}) => {
      console.log(value);
      console.log(times);
  });

Example

Repeat endless

import Between from 'between.js';

new Between(1, 10).time(4000)
  .loop('repeat')
  .on('update', (value) => {
      console.log(value);
  });

Example

import Between from 'between.js';

new Between(1, 10).time(4000)
  .loop('bounce', N)
  .on('update', (value, {times}) => {
      console.log(value);
      console.log(times);
  });

Example

Easing

import Between from 'between.js';
import Easing from 'easing-functions';

// choose easing mode frome easing-functions

new Between(1, 10).time(4000)
