  1. lottie-web

    Render After Effects animations natively on Web, Android and iOS, and React Native. http://airbnb.io/lottie/

    contribute If you have the knowledge and skills, contributing to the project directly is another valuable way to assist. However, keep in mind that contributing can be challenging if you're not familiar with animation basics and the lottie format. That's precisely what this article aims to address!

  3. Skia

    Skia is a complete 2D graphic library for drawing Text, Geometries, and Images.

    Actually, that's not entirely accurate. The lottie-web library itself doesn't support rendering to WebGL. However, there is a package called canvaskit-wasm that wraps Skia (a graphics engine) with WebAssembly (wasm). This package includes a module called skottie which supports rendering animations into a WebGL surface. However, there is a drawback with this approach: using wasm requires loading a relatively large package, and it's uncertain whether all features are supported correctly, as the official compatibility table that tracks lottie support on different platforms does not include skottie.
