Rive

Overview

Rive is an interactive animation runtime. Animations, artboards, and state machines are designed in the Rive editor and exported as .riv files, then played back and driven at runtime by state machine inputs. The web runtime ships as separate npm packages per renderer — @rive-app/canvas (Canvas 2D) and @rive-app/webgl2 (the newer WebGL2 renderer) — with matching React wrappers (@rive-app/react-canvas, @rive-app/react-webgl2). Native bindings exist for Flutter, iOS, Android, and React Native.

Instructions

Install

# Canvas 2D renderer (simplest, matches most existing examples)
npm install @rive-app/canvas
npm install @rive-app/react-canvas    # React wrapper, if using React

# Or the newer WebGL2 renderer, which Rive now points new projects at
npm install @rive-app/webgl2
npm install @rive-app/react-webgl2
