react-toastify VS animate.css

React Toastify

React-Toastify is one of the most popular toast UI libraries for React or Next.js. It's easy to configure and use, but integrating it with the App router makes the configuration part a bit tricky. There is an open issue about this topic, and while you can find some solutions there, they aren't summarized. So in this article, I'll provide a summarized version of the solution to integrate React-Toastify with Next.js App router.

When the Notify Me button is clicked, the onCLick event triggers the notify function which in turn renders the toast notification in the UI. Note: you must also render the component for the toast notification to work. There are configurations options that you can customize to fit into your project requirements; check out the full documentation here: Toastify Documentation

In their official example, handleError logs a message to console but it is better to return value so you can reuse in somewhere else easily later. Therefore, you can use this function instead with react-toastify or others to show notifications.

Animate.css

Animate.css (https://animate.style/)

Now, the content slide animation will come in later, as shown below: How about creating an altogether custom animation? Let’s make a bounce animation.

There are a few ways to create animations in React, but all of them fall into two broad categories: CSS animations, which change visual state by applying CSS rules; and, JavaScript animations, which use JavaScript to change the properties of the element. In either of those categories, you can either implement the animation from scratch, or you can use a library. On the CSS side, you can compose your animations with CSS rules, or you can use third-party libraries like Animate.css.

Use actual CSS/JS to make the effects. You can learn most of it if you search for CSS3 animations (Mozilla dev docs are a good option). You could also use a library like Animate.css

Animate.css: This CSS animation library offers different pre-built animations that can be easily applied to elements on a website. Different animations in the library, such as fades, slides, flips, and more, can be used to animate CSS Grid layouts.
