Android CodeView VS Lottie for Android, iOS, and React Native

The next step after I created the programming language was to create a code editor for it and a preview screen, for the code editor I used the CodeView library to provide highlighter, auto complete, snippets, error and warn highlighter and for the diagnostics messages, I used TreeView library so you an expand or collapse errors, warns or both easily.

This post explains two features from the newest version of the CodeView library which are support auto-indentation, and adding support for finding matching and replacing keywords. You can find full documentation about how to install and use CodeView from its Github Repository official Repository.

Worth mentioning that After Effects can export CSS/SVG/canvas animations with the free bodymovin/Lottie plugin. This is my personal go to for creating web key frame animations and elements.

Not every after effects feature is exportable, but it’s the best and most reliable solution I’ve found for this type of workflow, maybe due in part though to my previous experience with AE.

A smooth and visually appealing on-boarding experience can greatly impact how users perceive the quality of your app. In my previous article, we explored how to create custom splash screens on Fire TV apps to optimize the startup time and improve user experience. Building on that knowledge we will take a step further and learn how to develop an animated splash screen using Lottie for Fire TV applications.

I'd suggest Lottie with a JSON animation file

Lottie[1], an Adobe After Effects plugin, fills a gap in vector animation authoring and is quite widely used (primarily in mobile applications but also works on the web, Discord for example supports them for stickers).

It's a pity SVG animation authoring tools never eventuated since it's an underutilized native format.

Unity can export to WebGL/WASM, so that's one option if you're making some kind of heavy interactive experience and you don't mind waiting for it to load. For just animations there are tools like Lottie that can help. I think things are generally a lot more fragmented than they were in the Flash/Shockwave days though.
