a\n<code><a href=\"api/animations/transition\" class=\"code-anchor\">transition</a>()</code> call, the steps run sequentially by default.\nCompare this to the <code><a href=\"api/animations/group\">group()</a></code> call, which runs animation steps in\nparallel.</p>\n<p>When a sequence is used within a <code><a href=\"api/animations/group\">group()</a></code> or a <code><a href=\"api/animations/transition\" class=\"code-anchor\">transition</a>()</code> call,\nexecution continues to the next instruction only after each of the inner animation\nsteps have
