class="animate-bounce delay-150 animation-duration-300 ..."> Button A </button> <button class="animate-bounce delay-300 animation-duration-300 ..."> Button B </button> <button class="animate-bounce delay-700 animation-duration-300 ..."> Button C </button> ``` Learn more in the [animation delay](/docs/animation-delay.md) documentation. #### Changing animation direction Use the `direction-{keyword}` utilities to control an element’s `animation-delay`. ```html <button class="animate-bounce direction-normal ...">Button A</button> <button class="animate-bounce direction-reverse ...">Button B</button> <button class="animate-bounce direction-alternate ...">Button C</button> <button class="animate-bounce direction-alternate-reverse ...">Button C</button> ``` Learn more in the [animation direction](/docs/animation-direction.md) documentation. #### Changing animation duration Use the `animation-duration-{amount}` utilities to control an element’s `animation-duration`. ```html <button class="animate-bounce animation-duration-150 ...">Button A</button> <button class="animate-bounce animation-duration-300 ...">Button B</button> <button class="animate-bounce animation-duration-700 ...">Button C</button> ``` Learn more in the [animation duration](/docs/animation-duration.md) documentation. #### Changing animation fill mode Use the `fill-mode-{keyword}` utilities to control an element’s `animation-fill-mode`. ```html <button class="animate-bounce fill-mode-none ...">Button A</button> <button class="animate-bounce fill-mode-forwards ...">Button B</button> <button class="animate-bounce fill-mode-backwards ...">Button C</button> <button class="animate-bounce fill-mode-both ...">Button C</button> ``` Learn more in the [animation fill mode](/docs/animation-fill-mode.md) documentation. #### Changing animation iteration count Use the `repeat-{amount}` utilities to control an element’s `animation-iteration-count`. ```html <button class="animate-bounce repeat-0 ...">Button A</button> <button class="animate-bounce repeat-1 ...">Button B</button> <button class="animate-bounce repeat-infinite ...">Button C</button> ``` Learn more in the [animation iteration count](/docs/animation-iteration-count.md) documentation. #### Changing animation play state Use the `running` and `paused` utilities to control an element’s `animation-play-state`. ```html <button class="animate-bounce running ...">Button B</button> <button class="animate-bounce paused ...">Button A</button> ``` Learn more in the [animation play state](/docs/animation-play-state.md) documentation. #### Changing animation timing function Use the `ease-{keyword}` utilities to control an element’s `animation-timing-function`. ```html <button class="animate-bounce ease-linear ...">Button A</button> <button class="animate-bounce ease-in ...">Button B</button> <button class="animate-bounce ease-out ...">Button C</button> <button class="animate-bounce ease-in-out ...">Button C</button> ``` Learn more in the [animation timing function](/docs/animation-timing-function.md) documentation. #### Prefers-reduced-motion For situations where the user has specified that they prefer reduced motion, you can conditionally apply animations and transitions using the `motion-safe` and `motion-reduce` variants: ```html <button class="motion-safe:animate-bounce ...">Button B</button> ``` ### Enter & Exit Animations ### Adding enter animations To give an element an enter animation, use the `animate-in` utility, in combination with some [`fade-in`](/docs/enter-animation-scale.md), [`spin-in`](/docs/enter-animation-rotate.md), [`zoom-in`](/docs/enter-animation-scale.md), and [`slide-in-from`](/docs/enter-animation-translate.md) utilities. ```html <button class="animate-in fade-in ...">Button A</button> <button class="animate-in spin-in ...">Button B</button> <button class="animate-in zoom-in ...">Button C</button> <button class="animate-in slide-in-from-top ...">Button D</button> <button class="animate-in slide-in-from-left ...">Button E</button> ``` Learn more in the [enter animation](/docs/enter-animation.md) documentation. ### Adding exit animations To give an element an exit animation, use the `animate-out` utility, in combination with some [`fade-out`](/docs/exit-animation-scale.md), [`spin-out`](/docs/exit-animation-rotate.md), [`zoom-out`](/docs/exit-animation-scale.md), and [`slide-out-from`](/docs/exit-animation-translate.md) utilities. ```html <button class="animate-out fade-out ...">Button A</button> <button class="animate-out spin-out ...">Button B</button> <button class="animate-out zoom-out ...">Button C</button> <button class="animate-out slide-out-from-top ...">Button D</button> <button class="animate-out slide-out-from-left ...">Button E</button> ``` Learn more in the [exit
