Description

I'm moving over from Driver.js, which features smooth animated transitions between steps.

If you check out the demo on their homepage, you'll see how each highlight gracefully shifts and moves across the page with a nice animation effect.

In contrast, the current Shepherd.js tour steps appear abruptly, without transitions.

Is it possible to implement similar smooth animated transitions in Shepherd.js, like those in Driver.js?
