A simple and small (600 bytes) library to help animate elements while scrolling using responsive Tailwind CSS utility classes.
To view 20+ examples of TAOS in action go to versoly.com/taos.
TAOS can be included as a plugin into an existing Tailwind CSS project and will allow you to add responsive Tailwind CSS utility classes for animation on scroll.
Install TAOS package
npm install taos --save
Add plugin in tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: [
require('taos/plugin')
],
}
Add safelist utilties tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
safelist: [
'!duration-[0ms]',
'!delay-[0ms]',
'html.js :where([class*="taos:"]:not(.taos-init))'
]
}
Add content transform in tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
content: {
relative: true,
transform: (content) => content.replace(/taos:/g, ''),
files: ['./src/*.{html,js}'],
},
}
Add script in <head>
<script>document.documentElement.classList.add('js')</script>
Add the CDN script or download and paste right before the closing </body>
tag
<script src="https://unpkg.com/taos@1.0.5/dist/taos.js"></script>
TAOS does not currently work with JS frameworks as they rerender, disable certain event listeners.
Support for them is on the road map.
- AOS: is a great library and works by using custom classes such as aos-animate to animate elements.
- Tailwind: created an easy to use utility library that is easily extendable and flexible. Their variant and just in time compiler changed the game for developers.
