Quickstart

Start using the LottieFiles plugin for Figma by installing it, learning the interface, and creating your first animation.

A short path from a Figma canvas to your first Lottie workflow. If you are new to the LottieFiles plugin, start here.

This chapter has three pages, in the order you will likely follow them:

  1. Installation - install the plugin from Figma Community and open it in Figma.

  2. Interface - learn where Explore, Workspace, Figma to Lottie, and Tools live inside the plugin.

  3. Your first animation - choose a simple starting point and export your first Figma scene.

If setup is already done, skip ahead to Figma to Lottie.

Note - You can browse public animations in Explore without preparing a Figma scene. Creating from Figma starts with selected frames, multiple frames, or a prototype flow.
