**Welcome!** Text Animations for UI Toolkit is an asset for animating text in UI toolkit. Animations can be added by writing rich text tags (like `<rainbow>`) into your text. It's perfect for making your UI elements juicy and giving life to your dialogues.

Check out the [Getting Started](/text-animations/getting-started.md) guide to set up Text Animations for UI Toolkit in your project as fast as possible. The asset also includes a showcase scene that shows how to use text animations with a simple dialogue system.

To quickly see which types of animations are supported, look at the [Built-in Text Appearance / Vanishing Animations](/text-animations/typewriting/built-in-text-appearance-vanishing-animations.md) and the [Built-in Animations](/text-animations/animations/built-in-animations.md) pages. If that's not enough for you, check out [Custom Animations](/text-animations/animations/custom-animations.md) and [Custom C# Animations](/text-animations/c-extensions/custom-c-animations.md), to create anything you can imagine.
