Does Counter work in Nuxt 3?

Yes. Drop it into any page or component. The component is client-safe; Nuxt handles the SSR boundary automatically. If you want explicit client-only rendering, wrap in ` `.

Does Counter work with Vue 2?

No - the component uses the Vue 3 Composition API and ` ` syntax. Vue 2 support is not planned. If you need Vue 2, the HTML/CSS/JS variant works in any context.

Does Counter work with TypeScript in Vue?

Yes. The component is typed and works with both `vue-tsc` and Volar. Props match the `data-anm-*` attributes documented on the main detail page.

Will the animation flash before hydration in Nuxt SSR?

Brief flash is possible because GSAP needs the client to initialize. The component sets the parked state via `gsap.set` on `onMounted` before the first paintable frame. For above-the-fold use in SSR contexts, add a CSS opacity:0 default that the component clears.

GSAP component for Vue

Counter in Vue.

A number that counts up as you scroll to it, either rolling like an odometer with each digit spinning on its own, or ticking up smoothly. Add a currency sign, a percent or your own unit.

Install

Install Counter in your Vue project

Counter ships as a copy-paste Vue 3 single-file component. The only dependency is GSAP - Vue's reactivity and lifecycle hooks replace the React useGSAP adapter, so no extra package is needed.

Where it goes in your Vue app

Counter is a leaf-level interactive component. Drop it into any page, layout, or other component. It works in Vue 3 + Vite, Nuxt 3, and any standalone Vue setup.

In Nuxt, no special handling is needed - the component is client-safe and self-cleaning. If you want to ensure it never runs on the server (rare), wrap your usage in <ClientOnly>.

The component uses the <script setup> composition API and TypeScript-friendly defineProps.

Gotchas

Nuxt SSR flash

This component parks its initial state inside onMounted, which runs client-side only. In Nuxt SSR the un-parked DOM paints briefly before hydration. Wrap in <ClientOnly> or add a CSS opacity:0 default the component clears.

Template refs in Vue

Refs are accessed as .value, not .current. Pass elementRef.value to gsap.to() / gsap.from() targets.
