Is it possible to to these kind of textbox in windows form ? If yes, How? and can you give me a reference of that in order to achieve this. I've been a front end developer before and it's easy to do on web. I think i'm not the only one who want to know these. Thank you

This will be very hacky in winforms, its just not designed for a rich UI experience like this. look at wpf or UWP. Though if you have never used it your in for a bit of a learning curve for this type of animation – TheGeneral Sep 16 '18 at 03:41

I'm not using wpf but i know it's possible in wpf because it's has XML – Anonymous Sep 16 '18 at 03:46

Yes WPF and UWP are built for this type of rich UI experience. Winforms is kind of oldshool these days IMO, if this is a fresh project, i would be heading to WPF and be done with it – TheGeneral Sep 16 '18 at 03:48

I think to a certain extent you can get above animations but it will not be fast or extremely customizable like WPF here are my recommendations:
Unfortunately both these are paid frameworks. If I do find a stable free framework I will update this answer.
Also Please Read up on more at How good can Winforms make a UI look using free resources only?
