What is the purpose of animate function?

Angular Animations are a powerful way to implement sophisticated and compelling animations for your Angular single page web application.

import { Component, OnInit, Input } from '@angular/core';
import { trigger, state, style, animate, transition } from '@angular/animations';
@Component({
selector: 'app-animate',
templateUrl: `<div [@changeState]="currentState" class="myblock mx-auto"></div>`,
styleUrls: `.myblock {
background-color: green;
width: 300px;
height: 250px;
border-radius: 5px;
margin: 5rem;
}`,
animations: [
trigger('changeState', [
state(
'state1',
style({
backgroundColor: 'green',
transform: 'scale(1)',
}),
),
state(
'state2',
style({
backgroundColor: 'red',
transform: 'scale(1.5)',
}),
),
transition('*=>state1', animate('300ms')),
transition('*=>state2', animate('2000ms')),
]),
],
})
export class AnimateComponent implements OnInit {
@Input() currentState;
constructor() {}
ngOnInit() {}
}
