Package Overview

Package selection guidance compiled from public package information, community data, and project usage.

Flare Flutter is a powerful package for integrating vector-based designs and smooth runtime animations into Flutter applications. Developed by rive.app, it enables designers and developers to create interactive, scalable animations using the Flare format. Animations are lightweight and performant, ideal for games and dynamic UIs. The package supports real-time animation control, state management, and seamless integration with Flutter's widget system. It’s particularly useful for creating engaging user experiences with fluid motion and responsive visuals.

Use cases

  • Interactive app interfaces
  • Game character animations
  • Loading and transition effects
  • Animated icons and buttons
  • Onboarding sequences

Key features

  • Vector-based animations
  • Real-time animation control
  • Seamless Flutter integration
  • Lightweight performance
  • Support for complex state-driven animations

Suitable for

  • Game developers
  • UI/UX designers
  • App developers seeking rich animations
  • Teams using Flare for design
  • Projects requiring scalable vector graphics

Considerations

  • Requires Flare design files (.flr)
  • Learning curve for Flare tool
  • Limited native support for non-Flare workflows
  • Best suited for projects with dedicated design assets
  • May increase build size with many animations

:warning: Please migrate to the new Rive Flutter runtime. This runtime is for the old Rive (formerly Flare) and will only receive updates for breaking issues with Flutter and egregious bugs. New features and updates are only planned for the new Rive.

Rive 1 (previously Flare)

Rive 1 (previously Flare) offers powerful realtime vector design and animation for app and game designers alike. The primary goal of Flare is to allow designers to work directly with assets that run in their final product, eliminating the need to redo that work in code.
