Typewriter component
Published on:
Introduction:
Inspired by a client’s retro punk-like typewriter design concept from years ago, I set to transform it into a reusable component for today’s web development landscape. Having previously created a basic version using plain Vue.js, React, and Web Component frameworks.
Overview
The TypeWriter component provides a customizable typewriter effect for websites and / or web applications. It allows developers to simulate the appearance of text being typed out, character by character.
Usage
- Import the component into your Vue.js application:
import TypeWriter from "./path-to/TypeWriter.vue";
- add it in HTML
<TypeWriter />
- Customize with props
- text
- The text content to be displayed and typed out by the component.
- speed
- The typing speed in milliseconds per character.
- backgroundColor
- The background color of the typewriter area.
- textColor
- The color of the typed text.
- textAlign
- The alignment of the typed text.
- fontSize
- The font size of the typed text.
- fontFamily
- The font family of the typed text.
- fontWeight
- The font weight of the typed text.
- lineHeight
- The line height of the typed text.
- letterSpacing
- The letter spacing of the typed text.
- padding
- The padding around the typed text.
