Example of Image+Text module with Lottie

Lottie is an open-source animation library created by Airbnb Design that helps developers embed animations into their websites and apps. It works on all platforms, such as iOS, Android, React Native, and Web. Lottie uses JSON files that can be created in Adobe After Effects and exported to Lottie's animation library. Animations created in Lottie can be small in size, lightweight, interactive, and cross-platform.

Another Lottie Example

The primary benefit of Lottie vs gifs and videos is that it offers a seamless, high-quality animation experience that is optimized for mobile devices. Lottie animations are small and highly efficient, so they can be loaded quickly and rendered smoothly on both Android and iOS devices. Additionally, Lottie animations are vector-based and can be easily scaled to different sizes without loss of quality, making them more versatile than gifs and videos. Finally, they can be customized and animated with coding, allowing for greater creative versatility.
