Summary

In this chapter, we explored the built-in support Vue.js has for transitions and animations, both for single and multiple components, and we saw how easy it is to set it up. At this point, you have created transition and animation effects for routes and components and witnessed all the basic features of Vue.js transitions: the custom transition class, group transition, and transition modes. Moreover, you also learned about other leading animation third-party libraries such as GSAP, and saw how to integrate them with your Vue application in order to get better animation effects on the web.

The next chapter focuses on another crucial topic for building a production-ready Vue application – state management and how components within an application communicate with one another using Pinia, a state management library.
