Animation

There are many great javascript animation libraries which you may use alongside Pts. For simple use cases, Pts' Tempo utility class provides an intuitive and lightweight alternative.

Animation sequences are commonly implemented as a curated list of tweens played in milliseconds. But what if we take the idea one level higher, and think of it like a dance? Like One-two-three, One-two-three...

Let's start by setting the beats. Tempo is usually measured in beats-per-minute (bpm), so there are two ways to initiate a Tempo instance: by setting a bpm, or specifying the duration of a beat in milliseconds.

The every function returns an object with two chainable functions: start(...) and progress(...). These functions let you attach custom callback functions that respond to animation events.

Tween: Since the t parameter in progress callback function always go from 0 to 1, we can map its value to a Shaping function and change the tweening style. Another neat trick is to use Num.cycle to map the t value from [0...1] to [0...1...0].

By changing bpm by setting the Tempo.bpm property, you can control the speed of your animation. This makes it easier to synchronize your animations with music or at specific intervals.

tempo.bpm = 100; // set new bpm
 tempo.bpm += 20; // make it 20 beats faster per minute
 

Try moving your cursor horizontally to change the bpm in this example:
