Description
The HeightAnimation component calculates the height, and animates from auto
to auto
– or from 0
to auto
in height – powered by CSS transition. It calculates the height on the fly.
When the animation is done, it sets the element's height to auto
.
The component can be used as an opt-int replacement instead of vanilla HTML Elements.
The element animation is done with a CSS transition with 400ms
in duration.
It also re-calculates and changes the height, when the given content changes.
Accessibility
It is important to never animate from 0 to e.g. 64px – because;
- the content may differ based on the viewport width (screen size)
- the content itself may change
- the user may have a larger
font-size
