flutter_lottie is a Flutter package that enables the rendering of Lottie animations—lightweight, scalable vector animations—on both iOS and Android platforms. It leverages the Lottie library to display JSON-based animations created in tools like After Effects via Bodymovin. The package simplifies integration of smooth, high-performance animations into Flutter apps without requiring complex custom code. Ideal for loading indicators, onboarding screens, and interactive feedback elements, it supports dynamic animation control such as playback speed and looping. Compatible with Flutter's widget system, it ensures consistent performance across devices.
