How to animate SVG on Scroll Using Custom Code

Recommended Posts

Hello! I need help implementing animation into an SVG image I made. Its just a line that I would like to animate as you scroll down the page (the line forming down the page while scrolling) 

So far, I've only managed to have the SVG appear but it simply sits on top of all the elements without moving or animating. 

Does anyone know a code to have the SVG animate ? I've attached the current code I am working with. I am not too advanced with JavaScript, so animating the svg is proving to be a challenge for me. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
