Code Change Transitions
snappify provides you different Transition types to animate code changes between Slides. This can be useful for providing step-by-step explanations of your code as well as visualizing refactorings.
Let's have a look at the different options:
FadeIn
With this transition type, new code changes will fade in and code which doesn't exist anymore will disappear gradually.

SlideIn
This transition type listens to whole line changes. Changed and new lines will slide in from the right and the old lines will slide out to the left.

Morph
This transition type can be used to visualize refactorings. It will morph the old code into the new code, moving keywords and identifiers to their new position.

TypeWriter
The TypeWriter effect will type out the code, character by character.

None
Of course you can also disable the animation completely. By choosing the Transition type None, the code will simply change without any animation.
