react-light-marquee

What goes around comes around! An ode to the HTML marquee element.

For most cases the number of elements in the dom is equal to number of children i.e it has no duplication. Duplication is only done when it is absolutely necessary.

Lightweight in bundle size and dom footprint.

Marquee fills the parent container and renders the children by default.

Marquee generates a css class for every instance with specific styles and hence it requires a id value to passed in.

Installation

npm install react-light-marquee

or

yarn install react-light-marquee
