  1. Hello, I had a question on how I would execute this script with multiple moving lines. For example, doing all the days of the week instead of just THURSDAY in your code. Also below my text on my website, there is code showing that I want to be hidden , but can’t figure it out. Any advice would be great, thanks.

  2. Hi there! Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial. How would I edit the code to animate it only once and then the text stays on the page?

    I changed the js to anime.timeline({loop:false}) but it loops once and then everything disappears.

    Thank you
