Fully declarative React Lottie player

Overview

The React Lottie player is a refreshing take on integrating Lottie animations within React applications. Designed to simplify the user experience, it provides a fully declarative way to control animations, addressing common issues found in other packages that wrap lottie-web. With a focus on seamless performance, this player ensures that state changes are handled accurately, which translates to smoother animations without the usual workarounds.

With a complete rewrite using React hooks, the library offers developers an intuitive API that promotes clean and readable code. This innovative approach not only reduces complexity but also eliminates memory leaks associated with traditional implementations. Whether you are looking to enhance your application's visual appeal or need an efficient way to integrate animations, the React Lottie player promises to deliver.

Features

  • Fully Declarative: Enjoy a straightforward and easy-to-use API that allows for clear control of your animations without cumbersome directives.
  • Handles State Changes Correctly: Keeps your animations in sync with React’s state management, ensuring that playing, pausing, and transitions work flawlessly.
  • Memory Leak Prevention: Unlike some alternatives, this package avoids memory leaks associated with repeated use, making it more reliable for extensive usage.
  • LottiePlayerLight Support: Opt for a lighter version of the player that eliminates the need for eval, enhancing security in your code base.
  • Lazy Loading Options: Seamlessly integrate code splitting with options like React.lazy or dynamic imports for a more efficient loading strategy.
  • Designed for Resize: The player can fill its container entirely with the 'cover' mode, allowing for versatile design options to fit various layouts.
  • Imperative API Option: For those familiar with traditional approaches, an alternative imperative API using refs is available, though it’s recommended to use with caution.
  • Rich API Documentation: Comprehensive type definitions and examples are provided, making it easy to get started and troubleshoot any issues.
