About Converting dotLottie to JSON
What is a dotLottie to JSON converter?
A dotLottie to JSON converter is a tool that extracts the core animation data from a .lottie file. The .lottie format is a compressed archive (like a .zip file) that bundles a Lottie JSON file along with any image assets. This tool unzips the .lottie file, finds the main animation.json file inside, and provides it for you to download.
What is the difference between a Lottie JSON and a dotLottie file?
A Lottie JSON (.json) is a text-based file that contains all the vector animation data, like shapes, keyframes, and paths. A dotLottie (.lottie) file is a compressed package. It contains the Lottie JSON file plus any raster images (like PNGs or JPEGs) used in the animation. This makes .lottie files smaller and easier to share, as everything is bundled into a single file.
How do I use this dotLottie converter?
Using the converter is simple: just drag and drop your .lottie file into the upload area, or click to select it from your computer. The tool will automatically process the file, and your browser will immediately start downloading the extracted .json file.
Is the tool secure?
All of the logic runs on the client, no animation never leaves your browser. If you want, you can install this site as a PWA and run the tool offline.
