What are the basics of animations in Angular?

Angular animations allow you to create dynamic transitions and effects in your applications. They are built on top of the Web Animations API and provide a powerful way to enhance user experience.

How do I implement a simple fade-in effect?

To create a fade-in effect, you can use the @Component decorator with the animations property. Define a fade-in animation using the trigger and transition functions.

Can you show me an example of the code?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import { trigger, transition, style, animate } from '@angular/animations';

@Component({
  animations: [
    trigger('fadeIn', [
      transition(':enter', [
        style({ opacity: 0 }),
        animate('500ms', style({ opacity: 1 }))
      ])
    ])
  ]
})
export class MyComponent {}

What other types of animations can I create?

You can create various animations like slide, scale, rotate, and more. Angular provides a flexible API to define complex animations based on your needs.
