Animations play a crucial role in an application’s user experience (UX). A set of well-designed animations can make an application feel fast, polished, and professional. However, creating animations can be a daunting task that involves knowing what is available and how to choose the right approach for each task.

You will start with the easiest methods and move on to more advanced animation methods as you make your way through this course. You’ll start with general animation techniques, covering CSS transitions, animations, and the Web Animations API, followed by Angular animations and integrating external animation libraries. Lastly, you’ll finish with a deep dive into animation performance and debugging.

This course will provide you with information and advice to help you create beautiful and performant animations in Angular applications. By the end of the course, you will be able to create performant animations and choose the right tools to create them effectively.

Animations in Angular

In the previous lesson, you were asked to animate an element’s position from its default position to `150px` to the right, depending on the element’s current state (`default` or `right`). In this lesson, we’ll review the solution. 


# Step 1: Add a flag and a function to toggle the flag

We can use a flag in our component to track the current state or position of the element (**line 12**). We can then add the `togglePosition` function to toggle between the two states (**lines 15–17**).


This lesson provides a detailed explanation for the previous challenge.
