how to use text animation in tailwind css

In this section we will see how to use text animation in tailwind css. To create a text animation in Tailwind CSS without defining custom keyframes in CSS, you can leverage the existing animation utilities in Tailwind along with some creative use of other utility classes. Here's a step-by-step guide on how you can achieve this.


Utilize Tailwind's Built-in Animation Utilities: Tailwind provides some basic animation classes, such as animate-spin or animate-ping, but these might not be directly suitable for text animations. However, you can use them as a starting point.

Combine with Transform Utilities: You can combine the animation utilities with transform utilities (like scale, rotate, translate, etc.) to create more interesting effects. For example, you might use scale to create a popping effect.
