How to use Fade Component in React JS ?

Last Updated : 23 Jul, 2025

The Fade Component, available in Material UI for React, seamlessly adds a fade animation to a child element or component. Integrating this component into a React JS project is straightforward and enhances the user interface with ease.

Prerequisites:

Popper Transitions: The Transition component is used as an animated feature for the open/close state of the popper. This component should follow the following conditions.

The descendant should be a direct child of the popper.
When enter transition starts call the onEnter callback prop.
When the exit transition is completed call the onExited callback prop.

Steps to create React Application And Installing Module:

Step 1: Create a React application using the following command.

npx create-react-app foldername

Step 2: After creating your project folder i.e. foldername, move to it using the following command.

cd foldername

Step 3: After creating the ReactJS application, Install the material-ui modules using the following command.

npm install @material-ui/core

The updated dependencies in package.json file will look like:

"dependencies": {
 "@material-ui/core": "^4.12.4",
 "react": "^18.2.0",
 "react-dom": "^18.2.0",
 "react-scripts": "5.0.1",
