Description

Seems that Lottie is a popular animation format, and it would be nice to have Pathfinder serve as a lightweight, secure, and fast player for these animations. Skia can do this: https://skia.org/user/modules/skottie

Unfortunately, Lottie depends on the Bodymovin plugin for After Effects, which is proprietary.
