Summary
The project involved creating a custom typewriter-style text animation for a Wix website using Wix Velo. The goal was to enhance the website’s visual appeal and user engagement by incorporating a dynamic and eye-catching text animation that mimics the effect of a typewriter, typing out letters one by one. This animation was to be seamlessly integrated into the existing design of the website, ensuring consistency with the overall brand aesthetics.
