shinyLottie

The ‘shinyLottie’ package allows users to easily integrate and control ‘Lottie’ animations within ‘shiny’ applications, without the need for idiosyncratic expression or use of ‘JavaScript’. This includes utilities for generating animation instances, controlling playback, manipulating animation properties, and more.

Installation

You can install the development version of ‘shinyLottie’ from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("CamHowitt/shinyLottie")

Example

Introducing ‘Lottie’ animations to a ‘shiny’ app can be accomplished using just two ‘shinyLottie’ functions:

library(shiny)
library(shinyLottie)

ui <- fluidPage(
  include_lottie(),
  lottie_animation(
    path = "shinyLottie/example.json",
    name = "my_animation"
  )
)

server <- function(input, output, session) {}

shinyApp(ui, server)
