React Animated Counter

A lightweight React component for beautifully animated incrementation & decrementation of a state integer value. Inspired by Robinhood's portfolio balance animation.

Built to support the chart hover tooltip on https://financhle.com - If you'd like to this component live in-action on a 5 year stock chart feel free to take a peek.

const App = () => {
  // Integer state
  const [counterValue, setCounterValue] = useState(500);

  // Handle random increment/decrement
  const handleCounterUpdate = (increment) => {
    const delta = (Math.floor(Math.random() * 100) + 1) * 0.99;
