Maybe translate3d() has better performance than simple position right?

[jackey]

how about this one ?

    const style = {
      //'position': 'static',
      'position': 'relative',
      'display': 'inline-block',
      //'right': this.state.animatedWidth,
      'transform': `translate3d(-${this.state.animatedWidth}px, 0px, 0px)`,
      'whiteSpace': 'nowrap'
    };

It is better indeed, this repo was built under the consideration of legacy browser support, so I choose setTimeout. You're very welcome to send some PRs to make it happen.

Only measureText on ~~render~~ receiving props would help too
