How are Lottie animated icons different from GIF icons?

A Lottie icon is vector data rendered live: it scales to any size without blurring, weighs a few kilobytes, supports transparency, and can be recolored in code. A GIF icon is a fixed-size raster loop. GIFs win on compatibility; Lottie wins everywhere quality or weight matters.

How do I add animated icons to my website?

Render the Lottie JSON or dotLottie file with a Lottie web player (a script tag plus one element). Trigger playback on hover, tap, scroll, or first view so the motion means something instead of looping forever.
