Course Description
Learn how an app, built using NativeScript that is already in the Apple and Google App stores, can be enhanced by applying newly learned animation techniques using both code animation and CSS animation. In this course, NativeScript: Animation Techniques, you'll dive deeper into ways you can leverage the power of your environment to get beautiful animations with documented methods. First, you'll learn how to write plain JavaScript property animation code without frameworks. Next, you'll learn about creating animation from sprite images using pure JavaScript. Then, you'll learn how to leverage code-based animation classes and functions that get shipped with NativeScript and Angular 2. Finally, you'll dive deep into the basics of CSS animation and how to apply them to your sample application and tapping into the raw power of native platforms. By the end of this course, you'll know more about NativeScript with Angular and how to build beautiful animations for
your mobile applications.
