CountUp.js
CountUp.js is a dependency-free, lightweight Javascript class that can be used to quickly create animations that display numerical data in a more interesting way.
Despite its name, CountUp can count in either direction, depending on the start and end values that you pass.
CountUp.js supports all browsers. MIT license.

CountUp for frameworks and plugins:
CountUp.js with Angular 2+
CountUp.js with Angular 1.x
CountUp.js with React
CountUp.js with Svelte
CountUp.js Vue component wrapper
CountUp.js WordPress Plugin
CountUp.js with jQuery
Features
Animate when element scrolls into view- new in v2.1.0. Use option enableScrollSpy.
Highly customizeablewith a large range of options, you can even substitute numerals.
Smart easing: CountUp intelligently defers easing until it gets close enough to the end value for easing to be visually noticeable. Configureable in the options.
Separate bundlesfor modern and legacy browsers, with and without the requestAnimationFrame polyfill. Choose countUp.min.js for modern browsers or countUp.withPolyfill.min.js for IE9 and older, and Opera mini.
Usage:
On npmas: countup.js. You can import as a module or include the UMD script and access CountUp as a global. See detailed instructions below.
Params:
target: string | HTMLElement | HTMLInputElement - id of html element, input, svg text element, or DOM element reference where counting occurs
endVal: number - the value you want to arrive at
options?: CountUpOptions - optional configuration object for fine-grain control
Options(defaults in parentheses):
- ``` ts
- interface CountUpOptions {
- startVal?: number; // number to start at (0)
- decimalPlaces?: number; // number of decimal places (0)
- duration?: number; // animation duration in seconds (2)
- useGrouping?: boolean; // example: 1,000 vs 1000 (true)
- useIndianSeparators?: boolean; // example: 1,00,000 vs 100,000 (false)
- useEasing?: boolean; // ease animation (true)
- smartEasingThreshold?: number; // smooth easing for large numbers above this if useEasing (999)
- smartEasingAmount?: number; // amount to be eased for numbers above threshold (333)
- separator?: string; // grouping separator (',')
- decimal?: string; // decimal ('.')
- // easingFn: easing function for animation (easeOutExpo)
- easingFn?: (t: number, b: number, c: number, d: number) => number;
- formattingFn?: (n: number) => string; // this function formats result
- prefix?: string; // text prepended to result
- suffix?: string; // text appended to result
- numerals?: string[]; // numeral glyph substitution
- enableScrollSpy?: boolean; // start animation when target is in view
- scrollSpyDelay?: number; // delay (ms) after target comes into view
- scrollSpyOnce?: boolean; // run only once
- onCompleteCallback?: () => any; // gets called when animation completes
- plugin?: CountUpPlugin; // for alternate animations
- }
- ```
Example usage:
- ``` js
- const countUp = new CountUp('targetId', 5234);
- if (!countUp.error) {
- countUp.start();
- } else {
- console.error(countUp.error);
- }
- ```
Pass options:
- ``` js
- const countUp = new CountUp('targetId', 5234, options);
- ```
with optional callback:
- ``` js
- const countUp = new CountUp('targetId', 5234, { onCompleteCallback: someMethod });
- // or (passing fn to start will override options.onCompleteCallback)
- countUp.start(someMethod);
- // or
- countUp.start(() => console.log('Complete!'));
- ```
Other methods:
Toggle pause/resume:
- ``` js
- countUp.pauseResume();
- ```
Reset the animation:
- ``` js
- countUp.reset();
- ```
Update the end value and animate:
- ``` js
- countUp.update(989);
- ```
Animate when the element is scrolled into view
Use the scroll spy option to animate when the element is scrolled into view. When using scroll spy, just initialize CountUp but do not call start();
- ``` js
- const countUp = new CountUp('targetId', 989, { enableScrollSpy: true });
- ```
Troubleshooting scroll spy
CountUp checks the scroll position as soon as it's initialized. So if you initialize it before the DOM renders and your target element is in view before any scrolling, you'll need to re-check the scroll position after the page renders:
- ``` js
- // after DOM has rendered
- countUp.handleScroll();
- ```
Including CountUp
CountUp is distributed as an ES6 module because it is the most standardized and most widely compatible module for browsers, though a UMD module is also included.
For the examples below, first install CountUp. This will give you the latest:
- ``` sh
- npm i countup.js
- ```
Example with vanilla js
This is what I used in the demo. Checkout index.html and demo.js.
main.js:
- ``` js
- import { CountUp } from './js/countUp.min.js';
- window.onload = function() {
- var countUp = new CountUp('target', 2000);
- countUp.start();
- }
- ```
Include in your html. Notice the type attribute:
- ``` html
- <script src="./main.js" type="module"></script>
- ```
To support IE and legacy browsers, use the nomodule script tag to include separate scripts that don't use the module syntax:
- ``` html
- <script nomodule src="js/countUp.umd.js"></script>
- <script nomodule src="js/main-for-legacy.js"></script>
- ```
To run module-enabled scripts locally, you'll need a simple local server setup like this (test the demo locally by running npm run serve ) because otherwise you may see a CORS error when your browser tries to load the script as a module.
For Webpack and other build systems
Import from the package, instead of the file location:
- ``` js
- import { CountUp } from 'countup.js';
- ```
UMD module
CountUp is also wrapped as a UMD module in ./dist/countUp.umd.js and it exposes CountUp as a global variable on the window scope. To use it, include countUp.umd.js in a script tag, and invoke it like so:
- ``` js
- var numAnim = new countUp.CountUp('myTarget', 2000);
- numAnim.start()
- ```

Lint: npm run lint
Run tests: npm t
Build and serve the demo by running npm start then check the demo to make sure it counts.
Creating Animation Plugins
CountUp supports plugins as of v2.6.0. Plugins implement their own render method to display each frame's formatted value. A class instance or object can be passed to the plugin property of CountUpOptions, and the plugin's render method will be called instead of CountUp's.
- ``` ts
- export declare interface CountUpPlugin {
- render(elem: HTMLElement, formatted: string): void;
- }
- ```
An example of a plugin:
- ``` ts
- export class SomePlugin implements CountUpPlugin {
- // ...some properties here
- constructor(options: SomePluginOptions) {
- // ...setup code here if you need it
- }
- render(elem: HTMLElement, formatted: string): void {
- // render DOM here
- }
- }
- ```
