If you are an animator or web developer looking to export high-quality animations from Adobe After Effects, you have likely heard of . There is often confusion regarding the price and availability of this tool.
Bodymovin is an extension that exports After Effects compositions into a called Lottie [8]. These files are lightweight and can be rendered natively on web and mobile platforms using the Lottie player [24, 29]. It supports vectors, shapes, solids, images, and many expressions, though it does not support video or audio files [18, 32].
While Bodymovin is the original engine, many animators now use the plugin. This is also free to download and often provides a smoother user experience with more features (like previewing animations before export).
This is the standard method for installing Bodymovin without using third-party installers.
