  },
  {
    duration: 400,
    timingFunction: easing.sineOut,

This library also comes with some basic easing functions included but feel free to use other easing libraries like easing-functions.

• sineIn
• sineOut

ES5 and browsers

You can also use this in the browser but you will still need node and npm to compile this project.

1. Clone this repo
2. cd into the directory
3. Install deps with npm i
4. Build the lib with npm run build

The files will be compiled to the dist/ folder.

Older browsers (no module)

For older browsers use the file dist/wtc-tween.umd.js

<script src="./wtc-tween.umd.js"></script>
<script>
  const tween = window.wtcTween["default"];
  const easing = window.wtcTween["easing"];
  tween(
    0,
    1,
    function (val) {
      // Do stuff
    },
    { timingFunction: easing.sineOut }
  );
</script>

Newer browsers (module)

If targetting browsers that support modules, use dist/wtc-tween.modern.js:

<script type="module">
  import tween, { easing } from "./wtc-tween.modern.js";

  tween(0, 1, function (val) {
    // Do stuff
  });
</script>
