Lottie for the Web: Handoff That Developers Thank You For | Maxtech Inter

A Lottie file is a contract between design and engineering — write it cleanly.

Where this fits

A Lottie file is a contract between design and engineering — write it cleanly. This guide skips the theory and keeps what has worked across hundreds of shipped campaigns.

The essentials

• Design with shapes and paths; raster assets bloat files fast
• Respect a 50KB budget per animation for web delivery
• Name layers like variables — someone will debug them
• Test on low-end Android before sign-off, not after launch
• Ship a JSON manifest with sizes, triggers, and fallbacks

The proof point

60fps — smoothness maintained on mid-range phones by files following this budget discipline.

The bottom line

Motion that ships is motion that was designed to ship.
