  <sl-tag size="large" removable>Large</sl-tag>

<script>
  const div = document.querySelector('.tags-removable');

  div.addEventListener('sl-remove', event => {
    const tag = event.target;
    tag.style.opacity = '0';
    setTimeout(() => (tag.style.opacity = '1'), 2000);
  });
</script>

<style>
  .tags-removable sl-tag {
    transition: var(--sl-transition-medium) opacity;
  }
</style>
import SlTag from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/tag';

const css = `
  .tags-removable sl-tag {
    transition: var(--sl-transition-medium) opacity;
  }
`;

const App = () => {
  function handleRemove(event) {
    const tag = event.target;
    tag.style.opacity = '0';
    setTimeout(() => (tag.style.opacity = '1'), 2000);
  }

  return (
    <>
      <div className="tags-removable">
        <SlTag size="small" removable onSlRemove={handleRemove}>
          Small
        </SlTag>

        <SlTag size="medium" removable onSlRemove={handleRemove}>
          Medium
        </SlTag>

        <SlTag size="large" removable onSlRemove={handleRemove}>
