```javascript
var coords = { x: 0, y: 0 };
var tween = new TWEEN.Tween(coords)
	.to({ x: 100, y: 100 }, 1000)
	.onUpdate(function() {
		console.log(this.x, this.y);
	})
	.start();

requestAnimationFrame(animate);

function animate(time) {
	requestAnimationFrame(animate);
	TWEEN.update(time);
}
```

## Installation

Download the [library](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tweenjs/tween.js/master/src/Tween.js) and include it in your code:

```html
<script src="js/Tween.js"></script>
```

You can also reference a CDN-hosted version in your code, thanks to cdnjs. For example:

```html
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/tween.js/16.3.5/Tween.min.js"></script>
```

See [tween.js](https://cdnjs.com/libraries/tween.js/) for more versions.

### More advanced users might want to...

#### Use `npm`

```bash
npm install @tweenjs/tween.js
```

Then include the Tween.js module with the standard node.js `require`:

```javascript
var TWEEN = require('@tweenjs/tween.js');
```

And you can use Tween.js as in all other examples--for example:

```javascript
var t = new TWEEN.Tween( /* etc */ );
t.start();
```

You will need to use a tool such as `browserify` to convert code using this style into something that can be run in the browser (browsers don't know about `require`).

#### Use `bower`

```bash
bower install @tweenjs/tweenjs --save
```

or install an specific tag. They are git tags, and you can run `git tag` in the command line for a list if you have cloned the repository locally, or you can also check out the list in the [tween.js tags page](https://github.com/tweenjs/tween.js/tags). For example, to install `v16.3.0`:

```bash
bower install @tweenjs/tweenjs#v16.3.0
```

Then reference the library source:

```html
<script src="bower_components/@tweenjs/tweenjs/src/Tween.js"></script>
```

## Features

* Does one thing and one thing only: tween properties
* Doesn't take care of CSS units (e.g. appending `px`)
* Doesn't interpolate colours
* Easing functions are reusable outside of Tween
* Can also use custom easing functions

## Documentation

* [User guide](./docs/user_guide.md)
* [Contributor guide](./docs/contributor_guide.md)
* [Tutorial](http://learningthreejs.com/blog/2011/08/17/tweenjs-for-smooth-animation/)  using tween.js with three.js
* Also: [libtween](https://github.com/jsm174/libtween), a port of tween.js to C by [jsm174](https://github.com/jsm174)

## Tests

You need to install `npm` first--this comes with node.js, so install that one first. Then, cd to `tween.js`'s directory and run:

```bash
npm install
```

if running the tests for the first time, to install additional dependencies for running tests, and then run

```bash
npm test
```

every time you want to run the tests.

If you want to add any feature or change existing features, you *must* run the tests to make sure you didn't break anything else. If you send a pull request (PR) to add something new and it doesn't have tests, or the tests don't pass, the PR won't be accepted. See [contributing](CONTRIBUTING.md) for more information.
