Description
Hi,
I would like to do a simple animation on a scatterplot. The goal is to have the lines+markers of the plot move horizontally, similarly to the first example of https://plotly.com/javascript/animations/, but I can not find any example of how to achieve this when the Plot is a React component.
In the example I can edit the relevant section of the code in codepen and by changing the original to the following I get the animation I am looking for (works only once, but shows what I would like to do).
Plotly.animate('graph', {
data: [{x: [0,1,2]}], ...
My question is how could this be replicated in React (react-plotly.js) with a <Plot .../> component in the return function?
Thanks in advance!

Research direction
Begin by comparing the Plotly JavaScript animation example with the react-plotly.js <Plot .../> usage described in the issue. Determine whether the project should document or demonstrate the equivalent API, and consider the request complete when a React example shows the scatterplot moving horizontally.
