Before You Begin

sh
npm create vite@latest my-app -- --template react

This guide requires that you have basic knowledge of React and TypeScript, and that you have already created a blank React project.

You can speed up the development of your KendoReact application with the Kendo UI Template Wizard for Visual Studio Code.

Install the Component

sh
npm i @progress/kendo-react-animation @progress/kendo-theme-default

Run these commands in the root of your React project to install the KendoReact Animation package and its dependencies, and the Kendo UI Default theme.

Import the Component

tsx
import { Reveal } from '@progress/kendo-react-animation';
import '@progress/kendo-theme-default/dist/all.css';

Place the import statements in the App component file (for example: src/App.tsx) for your project. Note that the steps for installing and importing all Animation components are identical.

Use the Component

  1. After installing the Animation package and importing the components, add the <Reveal> tag to the App component file of your React project (for example, src/App.tsx). Note that you need to wrap the animation around the animated component or element.

    tsx
    <Reveal>
        <div className="content" key={index}>
            {index}
        </div>
    </Reveal>
  2. Build and run the application by typing the following command in the root folder of your project:

    sh
    npm run dev
  3. Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to see the KendoReact Reveal component on the page.
