const example = new Textify({
selector: ".selector",
easing: "back",
});Step 4: Finally, config the text reveal animation.
const example = new Textify({
selector: ".selector",
// easing function
easing: "Default",
// fade easing
fadeEasing: 'Default'
// duration in ms
duration: 1450,
// delay in ms
delay: 100,
// enable fade animation
fade: false For fade animation.
// Text reveal direction
// false = bottom to top

// whether animation should happen only once
once: true,
// add rotation on words
rotation: 0,
// add scaling on words
