## What it is
Haiku Animator is an open-source desktop design tool for creating Lottie animations and interactive web components with a visual canvas, timeline, and code editors. It exports to Lottie, GIF, and video, and integrates with Figma, Illustrator, and Sketch for embedding animations in web codebases.

## Use cases
- create lottie animations for ios and android apps
- design ui animations with a visual timeline
- export animations as gif or video
- import assets from figma or sketch and animate them
- add interactive animations to react vue or angular apps
- teach motion design in a classroom

## When to choose
- you need a gui-based tool to author Lottie animations without writing code
- your team works with Figma, Sketch, or Illustrator assets and wants to animate them
- you want interactive web animation components embeddable in React, Vue, or Angular

## When to avoid
- you need a lightweight code-only Lottie library rather than a full desktop editor
- you require active maintenance - the latest release dates to 2022 and the project appears dormant
- you need a fully permissive license - the license is non-standard (NOASSERTION)
