FAQs

What is a Lottie?

A Lottie is a JSON-based animation file format that allows you to ship animations on any platform as easily as shipping static assets. They are small files that work on any device and can scale up or down without pixelation. There are open-source and free Lottie players for the web, iOS, Android, Windows and other platforms.
