Custom Animation (add to your CSS):
@keyframes typing { 0% { width: 0; } 50% { width: 100%; } 100% { width: 0; } } @keyframes blink { 0%, 50% { border-color: currentColor; } 51%, 100% { border-color: transparent; } } /* Add this to your Tailwind config or CSS file */

This CSS typing animation generator makes it incredibly easy to create stunning typing text effects without writing code manually. Follow these steps to generate professional typing animations in seconds and get production-ready CSS code.
Start by entering the text you want to animate in the preview text field at the bottom of the preview area. You can type any text, including special characters (up to 50 characters). The preview will update in real-time as you type. The default text is "FrontendGeek".
Browse through our collection of typing animation presets in the "Typing Animation Effects & Presets" section. Click on any preset like Classic Typewriter, Fast Typing, Slow Typing, or Erase and Type to instantly apply it to your text. Each preset comes with pre-configured animation properties optimized for that effect.
Adjust the Duration slider (0.5-10 seconds) to control how fast or slow the typing animation plays. Set a Delay (0-5 seconds) if you want the animation to start after a specific time. Configure Steps for step-based animations, Cursor Width, and enable/disable Cursor Blink to match your design needs.
See your typing animation in real-time in the preview area as you make changes. Once satisfied, copy the generated CSS or Tailwind code from the code section. The generator provides both standard CSS code with keyframes and Tailwind CSS configuration for easy integration into your projects.
Creating a typing animation involves using keyframes to animate the width of the text container, combined with overflow and white-space properties. Here are examples for both CSS and Tailwind CSS:
@keyframes typing {
0% { width: 0; }
100% { width: 100%; }
}
@keyframes blink {
0%, 50% { border-color: currentColor; }
51%, 100% { border-color: transparent; }
}
.typing-animation {
overflow: hidden;
white-space: nowrap;
border-right: 2px solid currentColor;
animation: typing 2s steps(40) forwards, blink 0.75s step-end infinite;
width: 0;
}<!-- Add to your Tailwind config file (tailwind.config.js) -->
module.exports = {
theme: {
extend: {
keyframes: {
typing: {
'0%': { width: '0' },
'100%': { width: '100%' }
},
blink: {
'0%, 50%': { borderColor: 'currentColor' },
'51%, 100%': { borderColor: 'transparent' }
}
},
animation: {
typing: 'typing 2s steps(40) forwards, blink 0.75s step-end infinite'
}
}
}
}
<!-- HTML with Tailwind classes -->
<span class="overflow-hidden whitespace-nowrap border-r-2 border-current animate-typing w-0">
Your text here
</span>Key Components:
• overflow: hidden - Hides the text that hasn't been "typed" yet
• white-space: nowrap - Prevents text from wrapping to a new line
• border-right - Creates the blinking cursor effect
• steps() - Creates the character-by-character typing effect
• animation-fill-mode: forwards - Keeps the final state after animation completes
