Implementing Counter Animation in React

---

Packages can be of great help but overuse should be avoided. For one obvious reason — Maintainability. The more packages you use, the more difficult it is to maintain your code base. A package update could be a huge disaster. Like I always say, If you can write the logic, you do not need a package.

Some days ago, I needed to create a counter animation effect on a website. The product owner wanted a portion of the page which had statistics to appear as if it is counting the database records in real-time. I came across so many packages that could do this. But I just wanted to do it without using a package.
