Does it export Bodymovin JSON today?

No. This first version emits the export plan.

Why separate this from SVG to Lottie?

This page focuses on export packaging and validation, while SVG to Lottie focuses on geometry translation.

Can animation be added later?

Yes. Transform keyframes can be attached after shape layers are generated.

Is SVG Lottie Export free?

Yes. SVGKit tools are free to use with no account required.

Does SVG Lottie Export upload my files?

No. The tool runs entirely in your browser, so your files never leave your device.

Where does the animation run?

In the SVG file itself — no JavaScript runtime from SVGKit ships with the output.

Which browsers support it?

Modern desktop and mobile browsers render SVG animation; very old engines vary. Test where it matters.

Why is my animation janky?

Usually too many animated elements or animating expensive properties. Reduce the node count or switch to transform-based motion.

Page context

Where SVG Lottie Export fits

SVG Lottie Export generates a Bodymovin-compatible export plan from SVG source.

Export target

The tool defines composition size, frame rate, duration, Bodymovin compatibility goals, and validation steps.

Boundary

It is not a finished Bodymovin exporter. Real output needs a shape translator and a Lottie preview/runtime validation step.

SVG Lottie Export builds on SMIL or CSS animation, so the motion lives in the file and runs wherever the SVG renders.

How the animation layer works

SVG Lottie Export builds on standards-based SVG animation (SMIL or CSS), so the motion lives in the file itself and runs wherever the SVG renders.

Preview versus production

Preview the result in the browsers your audience uses. Animation support and timing behavior can differ slightly across engines.

Performance notes

Animating transform and opacity is cheap; animating attributes that trigger layout or repainting entire paths is not. Keep node counts low for smooth motion.

Respecting reduced motion

Consider honoring prefers-reduced-motion in the surrounding page so the animation does not fight an accessibility setting.

How to use

Paste SVG. Paste SVG source.
Generate export plan. Review composition, exporter, and validation steps.
Implement exporter. Use the plan to build Bodymovin-compatible JSON output.
