React Code Auto Typing

React Code Auto Typing is a React component for automatic code writing animation with highlighting included. Under the hood it uses react-typist and react-syntax-highlighter.

Check out a working demo here.

Install

npm install --save react-code-auto-typing

Usage

import CodeAutoTyping from "react-code-auto-typing";

const snippet = `function greet(name) {
  return 'Hello ' + name;
}

console.log(greet('John'));`;

export default function Example() {
  return (
    <CodeAutoTyping language="javascript">
      {snippet}
    </CodeAutoTyping>
  );
}

Note: you can use \n and \t to give format to the code if you prefer.

Style

To give a specific style to the highlighting, import one of the provided by the react-syntax-highlighter library.

import CodeAutoTyping from "react-code-auto-typing";
import { ocean } from "react-syntax-highlighter/dist/esm/styles/hljs";

const snippet = "console.log('Hello World');";

export default function Example() {
  return (
    <CodeAutoTyping
      language="javascript"
      syntaxHighlighterProps={{ style: ocean }}
    >
      {snippet}
    </CodeAutoTyping>
  );
}

Props

This component is basically a wrapper for react-typist and react-syntax-highlighter, so all props are forwarded to the corresponding library component.

• Typist props
• Syntax Highlighter props
