> As far as I can see there is no possibility to trigger animations using the usual slider in dash. E.g. there is an option for Shiny which adds a play button to the slider ([Shiny - Using sliders](https://shiny.rstudio.com/articles/sliders.html)). I know there are sliders with animation button for plotly. However, I would like to use it to trigger an animation for dash-leaflet, hence this does not help. Is there a way to get a slider moving automatically?
