Animated slideUp & slideDown Of Elements In Pure JavaScript – dom-slider

dom-slider is a pure JavaScript slide animation library for animated slideUp and slideDown of elements within the document.

A great alternative to jQuery’s slideToggle(), slideDown(), and slideUp() methods.

Can be used to toggle anything (like dropdown, accordion, popover, etc) from hide to show and vice versa.

How to use it:

1. To get started, load the minified version of the dom-slider library in the document.

<script src="./dist/dom-slider.js"></script>

2. Slide up/down or toggle an element as follows:

const el = document.querySelector('.myElement')

// toggle
slideToggle({
  element: el
})
// slide up
slideUp({
  element: el
})
// slide down
slideDown({
  element: el
})

3. Specify the animation speed. Default: 300.

slideDown({
  element: content, 
  slideSpeed: 800
})

4. Specify the animation delay. Default: 20

slideDown({
  element: content, 
  delay: 200
})

5. Determine the direction of the animation: ‘down’ or ‘up’.

slideDown({
  element: content, 
  slideDirection: 'up'
})

6. Apply a custom easing function.

slideDown({
  element: content, 
  easing: 'cubic-bezier(0.25, 0.1, 0.44, 1.4)'
})

7. Define the value of CSS display propery when the element is visible. Default: ‘block’.

slideDown({
  element: content, 
  visibleDisplayValue: 'inline'
})
