I was curious about the possibilities of animating features in OpenLayers3.
I'm very aware of the examples presented here http://openlayers.org/en/v3.0.0/examples/animation.html and here https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/26546/openlayers-animation-examples-and-algorithms
However, the official examples for OL3 don't quite fit my needs.
Let's assume that I have a layer (geojson for instance) that has a "time" column with lots and lots of time values.
I'd like to implement something like a slider that adds/removes features (or changes their style) depending on the user's actions.
The thing is that there are some APIs that might be able to do that, but they seem to be outdated (code examples were still working with ol2).
Do you have any suggestions on how to build a simple animation slider with OL3?
EDIT: It doesn't necessarily have to be proper animation. A possibility that came to my mind is changing the style of a layer whenever the slider is moved. Still no clue though on how to realise that.
This image illustrates what I have in mind:
EDIT: My current approach is to have a slider, that triggers code everytime it is moved. I somehow try do change the layer style dynamically, but I still haven't gotten a viable result.
