Top 4 typewriter-effect Open-Source Projects

typeit

18 3,015 4.0 JavaScript

The most versatile JavaScript typewriter effect library on the planet.

Project mention: Impressive performance gains in moving TypeIt from Gatsby to Astro | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-07-19

- the overall performance score jumped by 12 points.
All of this was achieved by sticking with the same overall design and layout. It was really due to getting away from a heavy, React-based static site generator.
If you’re working with a similar type of site and looking to upgrade, rebuild, or migrate, I highly recommend Astro and its Starlight theme. I’ll be using it probably exclusively moving forward.
