It helps reduce the delay between your pages, minimize browser HTTP requests and enhance your user's web experience.

Documentation

What's new?

  • Simplified API
  • Hook system for transitions and views
  • Transition resolution: declare your transitions and let Barba pick the right one
  • Use of data-barba attributes
  • Sync mode
  • Plugin system
    • @barba/router: use of routes for transition resolution
    • @barba/css: automatic addition of CSS classes
    • @barba/prefetch: automatic pages prefetching (and caching), based on viewport
    • @barba/head: update your <head> (coming soon)
    • @barba/preset: ready-to-use basic transitions pack (fade, slide, …) (coming soon)

Main changes (TL;DR)

  • Barba now use data-barba-* attributes:
  • 2 main methods:
    • barba.init() for transitions, views and Barba core settings
    • barba.use() for plugins (router, css, prefetch, etc.)
  • Transitions:
    • are plain JS objects
    • are declared via the barba.init({ transitions })
    • use "hooks" corresponding to animation steps
    • hooks can be synchronous or asynchronous (via this.async() or Promise based)
    • all hooks receive same data argument
    • use "rules" to select which transition to use
    • default rules are namespace and custom
    • @barba/router adds route rule
    • they can be combined within from and to properties
  • Views:
    • are plain JS objects
    • are declared via the barba.init({ views })
    • use a subset of animation "hooks":
    • beforeOnce, afterOnce, beforeLeave, afterLeave, beforeEnter, afterEnter
    • receive the same data argument
  • Sync mode will start leave and enter transitions concurrently
