How to use it

children must be a string. split="words" is the default; stagger sets the timing offset in milliseconds. Use replayKey to replay. The complete sentence is exposed to accessibility while visual fragments are hidden from screen readers.

Character splitting uses Unicode code points, not graphemes. Use words for compound emoji or scripts with ligatures. Keep a semantic heading or paragraph around the component.

Import

React / Next.js

1import { AnimatedText } from "@kivora/nextjs";

Interactive examples run inside a component with "use client". The playground's Copy button includes the imports needed for the current example.

API reference 0.3.0

Types from the installed published version, including component properties and common HTML attributes. “Optional” does not imply a default value; omitting a property lets the component decide.

Property	Type	Description
`children`Required	`string`	Content or child elements of the component.
`aria-label`	`string`	Accessible name of the control.
`className`	`string`	Additional CSS classes to customize the element.
`defaultChecked`	`boolean`	Initial selection of the control.
`defaultValue`	`string \| number \| readonly string[]`	Initial value when the component manages its own state.
`delay`	`number`	Delay before the entrance, in milliseconds.
`disabled`	`boolean`	Disable control interaction or animation motion.
`duration`	`number`	Animation duration in milliseconds.
`id`	`string`	Element identifier; associates labels and descriptions.

`onSubmit`	`SubmitEventHandler<HTMLSpanElement>`	Form submission event.
`preset`	`"fade" \| "fade-up" \| "fade-down" \| "scale"`	Entrance effect: fade, fade-up, fade-down, or scale.
`replayKey`	`string \| number`	Change this value to replay the entrance animation.
`role`	`AriaRole`	Semantic role of the element. Keep the default role unless a change is justified.

Review each component's properties and published declaration. Native and accessibility attributes are inherited from the element specified by its type.
