# d3-ease

*Easing* is a method of distorting time to control apparent motion in animation. It is most commonly used for [slow-in, slow-out](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12_basic_principles_of_animation#Slow_In_and_Slow_Out). By easing time, [animated transitions](https://github.com/d3/d3-transition) are smoother and exhibit more plausible motion.
<a href="https://d3js.org"><img src="https://github.com/d3/d3/raw/main/docs/public/logo.svg" width="256" height="256"></a>

The easing types in this module implement the [ease method](#ease_ease), which takes a normalized time *t* and returns the corresponding “eased” time **. Both the normalized time and the eased time are typically in the range [0,1], where 0 represents the start of the animation and 1 represents the end; some easing types, such as [elastic](#easeElastic), may return eased times slightly outside this range. A good easing type should return 0 if *t* = 0 and 1 if *t* = 1. See the [easing explorer](https://observablehq.com/@d3/easing) for a visual demonstration.
_Easing_ is a method of distorting time to control apparent motion in animation. It is most commonly used for [slow-in, slow-out](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twelve_basic_principles_of_animation#Slow_in_and_slow_out). By easing time, [animated transitions](https://github.com/d3/d3-transition) are smoother and exhibit more plausible motion.

These easing types are largely based on work by [Robert Penner](http://robertpenner.com/easing/).
## Resources

## Installing

If you use npm, `npm install d3-ease`. You can also download the [latest release on GitHub](https://github.com/d3/d3-ease/releases/latest). For vanilla HTML in modern browsers, import d3-ease from Skypack:

```html
<script type="module">
import {easeCubic} from "https://cdn.skypack.dev/d3-ease@3";
const e = easeCubic(0.25);
</script>
```

For legacy environments, you can load d3-ease’s UMD bundle from an npm-based CDN such as jsDelivr; a `d3` global is exported:

```html
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/d3-ease@3"></script>
<script>
const e = d3.easeCubic(0.25);
</script>
```

[Try d3-ease in your browser.](https://observablehq.com/@d3/easing-animations)

## API Reference

<a name="_ease" href="#_ease">#</a> <i>ease</i>(<i>t</i>)

Given the specified normalized time *t*, typically in the range [0,1], returns the “eased” time **, also typically in [0,1]. 0 represents the start of the animation and 1 represents the end. A good implementation returns 0 if *t* = 0 and 1 if *t* = 1. See the [easing explorer](https://observablehq.com/@d3/easing) for a visual demonstration. For example, to apply [cubic](#easeCubic) easing:

```js
const te = d3.easeCubic(t);
```

Similarly, to apply custom [elastic](#easeElastic) easing:

```js
// Before the animation starts, create your easing function.
const customElastic = d3.easeElastic.period(0.4);

// During the animation, apply the easing function.
const te = customElastic(t);
```
