DEMO

#Installation

$ bower install typewriterjs

#usage:

settingsObejct = {
    id: 'my-Element-Id', // @string, default value = 'typewriter'
    text: `multiline
      text to type`, //multiline text is acceptable- ES6
    index:5 // starting character - by default is 0
    timeSetting: 'fast', // @string , see default values timeSets
    autoScroll:false  // auto scrolling is by default enabled
};
typeWriter.type(settingsObject);

NOTE: you can skip any property in settings except text.

NOTE2: run on document ready.

#Use cases:

typewriter.js can be used as:

• module to auto type song's lyrics
• helper module for applications targeted to people with disabilities
• simple typing effect on a website

#How does it work Simply picks a random integer between two numbers and prints one-by-one the letters of the provided text, until the text length is exhausted.

#Custom settings timeSetting property presets are 'breeze', 'fast', 'slow' and 'momstyping' (faster to slower scale). User-defined timeSetting can be set in the following way:

typewriter.type({
	...
	timeSetting:[max_miliseconds, min_miliseconds]
	...
	});
