Lottie animations run on Android, iOS, and the web. Getting them working on the JVM is a different story. @lottie4j started as a question: can JavaFX render them without a WebView? That question turned into a library with a first release in March 2026! Since then, I received the first pull requests, recently added headless…...

Lottie animations on the JVM.

New blog and video: I talked with Naail Abdul Rahman, R&D engineer at LottieFiles, about the full Lottie story.

We covered the history (from Bodymovin to Airbnb to everywhere), the dotLottie format and why it matters, compliance with the LAC spec, and what comes next for @lottie4j.

Timestamped chapters if you want to jump straight to a topic.

When I released Lottie4J 1.1.0, I mentioned something a bit embarrassing in the release notes and this blog post: there was a new unit test to compare the JavaFX player output against a JavaScript reference player, but it "can not run on CI, because it requires a display output." A TODO. A known limitation. One…...

Version 1.2.0 of Lottie4J is out, and it's again a big release! The headline feature is support for the .lottie container format, but that's just the start. This release also brings marker-based playback, cropping, adaptive rendering, significant performance improvements, and a lot of core model fixes driven by testing more complex...

Just one week after the first public release of @lottie4j, the open-source Java library for rendering Lottie animations in JavaFX, version 1.1.0 is already out. And it's a big one! A lot happened in that one week. A logo was designed for the project, a Lottie animation was created for that logo (naturally!), and, most…...
