## Usage

### UIKit

Since `LTMorphingLabel` is a drop-in replacement, you can use it like any `UILabel` by setting its text property, yielding the default effect (`.scale`):

```swift
var exampleLabel = LTMorphingLabel()
exampleLabel.text = "This is a test"
```
![UIKitExample1](https://github.com/jonathanwuki/LTMorphingLabel/assets/11484046/bba7138e-1ef8-4714-8792-f34349434761)

Alternatively, it can be used interactively:
```swift
var exampleLabel = LTMorphingLabel()
exampleLabel.text = "This is a test"
exampleLabel.pause()

// Call .updateProgress(progress: Float) for interactive animation
// Note: In this case, animation will stop at 45% and will not complete
// unless called later with 100 as the `progress` float value.
exampleLabel.updateProgress(progress: 45.0)
```

The effect can be changed by setting the `morphingEffect` property:
```swift
var exampleLabel = LTMorphingLabel()
exampleLabel.text = "This is a test"
exampleLabel.morphingEffect = .burn
```
![UIKitExample2](https://github.com/jonathanwuki/LTMorphingLabel/assets/11484046/13ab83a6-7f1f-4aac-b0eb-d6172773a671)

### SwiftUI

To use `LTMorphingLabel` in SwiftUI, simply declare it and set its text, `effect`, `font`, and `textColor` properties:
```swift
public var body: some View {
VStack {
MorphingText(
"This is a test",
font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 20),
textColor: .black,
textAlignment: .center
)
.frame(maxWidth: 200, maxHeight: 100)
}
}
```

Similar to its use in UIKit, you can also specify the morphing effect manually (if you do not want to use the default `.scale` effect):
```swift
public var body: some View {
VStack {
MorphingText(
"This is a test",
effect: .burn, // Specify an alternative morphing effect with this line
font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 20),
textColor: .black,
textAlignment: .center
)
.frame(maxWidth: 200, maxHeight: 100)
}
}
```
