Installation

Install using your package manager of choice:

pnpm i svelte-transition

Usage

Import into your component and use a flag to control whether to show or hide an HTML Element.

import Transition from 'svelte-transition'

let show = false

Wrap the HTML Element with the <Transition> component, setting the flag to toggle visibility and the classes to apply when transitioning:

<Transition
	{show}
	enter="ease-in-out duration-300"
	enterFrom="opacity-0"
	enterTo="opacity-100"
	leave="ease-in-out duration-300"
	leaveFrom="opacity-100"
	leaveTo="opacity-0"
></Transition>

Shortcut

If the leave transition is the opposite of the enter transition it can be omitted to save bytes. This is identical to the previous example:

<Transition {show} enter="ease-in-out duration-300" enterFrom="opacity-0" enterTo="opacity-100"></Transition>

i.e. leave will equal enter, leaveFrom will equal enterTo, and leaveTo will equal enterFrom unless you override them.

Appear

Set appear to have the transition play on initial mount.

Default false.

Unmount

Set unmount to have the transitioned element removed from the DOM when not shown (instead of just hidden).

Default false.

Co-ordinating Transitions

If the show property is ommitted then the transition is treated as a child and will receive it's state from it's parent. The parent will automatically wait for it's children to finish transitioning before they are unmounted or hidden, so the animations can complete.

Events

The component raises events to indicate when any transition is running:

• before-enter runs before the enter transition happens
• after-enter runs after the enter transition happens
• before-leave runs before the leave transition happens
• after-leave runs after the leave transition happens

TailwindUI

If you're converting from TailwindUI markup, you can use this handy converter to convert the comments into <Transition> markup and classes.
