To create a scroll-triggered text reveal animation in Webflow without using CSS, you can utilize Webflow's built-in interactions feature. Here is a step-by-step tutorial to guide you through the process:

  1. Create a new section : Start by adding a new section to your page. This will serve as the container for your text and the trigger for the animation.

  2. Add a text element : Within the new section, add a text element by dragging and dropping the Text element from the Elements panel.

  3. Position your text element : Adjust the position and size of your text element within the section as desired.

  4. Enable interactions : Open the Interactions panel, located on the right side of the Webflow Designer. Click on the "+" button to add a new interaction.

  5. Choose interaction type : Select the "Scroll" interaction type.

  6. Set up trigger : Click on the "While scrolling in view" option to set your trigger. This ensures that the animation begins when the section is visible on the screen.

  7. Add an action : Click on the "+" button under "While scrolling in view" to add an action to the interaction.

  8. Choose target element : Select your text element as the target for the action.

  9. Set initial state : In the action settings, choose "Initial appearance" and customize the initial state of your text element. For example, you can set the opacity to 0 or move it off-screen.

  10. Add animation : Click on the "+" button within the action settings to add an animation. Choose the desired animation, such as fade in or slide in.

  11. Set up animation properties : Configure the animation properties to achieve the desired effect, such as duration, delay, and easing.

  12. Preview and refine : Preview your animation by scrolling within the Webflow Designer. Adjust the animation properties as needed until you achieve the desired scroll-triggered text reveal effect.

Unfortunately, I am unable to provide a video tutorial. However, Webflow's University offers comprehensive tutorials that cover various topics, including interactions. You can find video tutorials there that can guide you through the process of creating scroll-triggered text reveal animations.
