Request: Start with first text string actually showing / in place (not empty space)

[drewclifton]

Hi!

When communicating with people, one would often logically want to start with something present (not nothing), and then reveal to the user (surprise them!) to find out that there is more to be said (and that we have animation! Woohoo).

Typed.js seems to always start with nothing, and reveal text, e.g.:

You are . (then add amazing, stupendous, engaging, etc.

Could we have an option to start with the first item in place at start, and then cycle, e.g.:

You are amazing. (then change to stupendous, engaging, etc.)

If I am wrong about this, and there is already a way to do this, please let me know, thanks!

Would also love this! As it is now, my best work around is to independently render the first string and hide typed until it has written out the first string and then I swap what is hidden & shown.
