Animated Number

Use Framer Motion to animate a number in React.

Demo

Code

// animated-number.tsx

"use client";

import { motion, useSpring, useTransform } from "framer-motion";
import { useEffect } from "react";

function AnimatedNumber({ value }: { value: number }) {
  let spring = useSpring(value, { mass: 0.8, stiffness: 75, damping: 15 });
  let display = useTransform(spring, (current) =>
    Math.round(current).toLocaleString()
  );

  useEffect(() => {
    spring.set(value);
  }, [spring, value]);

  return <motion.span>{display}</motion.span>;
}

Usage

Works in both Client Components and Server Components.

// client-component.tsx

"use client";

export default function Page() {
  let [value, setValue] = useState(1000);

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => setValue(value - 100)}>-100</button>

      <AnimatedNumber value={value} />

      <button onClick={() => setValue(value + 100)}>+100</button>
    </div>
  );
}
// server-component.tsx

export default async function Page() {
  let visitors = await getVisitors();

  return (
    <div>
      <p>Visitors:<p>
      <AnimatedNumber value={visitors} />
    </div>
  );
}
