A simple yet powerful native javascript plugin for a cool typewriter effect, developed by Tameem Safi.

I am still learning so any advice or feedback would be amazing. You can find my email on my profile page.

NPM Repository Website JSFiddle Example

This include the core typewriter library, which can be used directly through the API.

See examples in the 'examples' folder.

import Typewriter from 'typewriter-effect/dist/core';

new Typewriter('#typewriter', {
  strings: ['Hello', 'World'],
  autoStart: true,
});

All methods can be chained together.

This incldues a React component which can be used within your project. You can pass in a onInit function which will be called with the instance of the typewriter so you can use the typewriter core API.

import Typewriter from 'typewriter-effect';

<Typewriter
  onInit={(typewriter) => {
    typewriter.typeString('Hello World!')
      .callFunction(() => {
        console.log('String typed out!');
      })
      .pauseFor(2500)
      .deleteAll()
      .callFunction(() => {
        console.log('All strings were deleted');
      })
      .start();
  }}
/>

Alternatively you can also pass in options to use auto play and looping for example:

import Typewriter from 'typewriter-effect';

<Typewriter
  options={{
    strings: ['Hello', 'World'],
    autoStart: true,
    loop: true,
  }}
/>

You can use the CDN JS version of this plugin for fast and easy setup.
