Introduction
Animations play a vital role in creating engaging user experiences, whether in mobile apps, games, or websites. Rive is a cutting-edge tool designed to simplify animation creation, making it accessible for designers and developers alike.
What Is Rive?
Rive is an all-in-one platform for creating and integrating interactive animations.

Rive Runtimes
Rive runs anywhere with our open-source runtimes
No code or full code, you choose. Easily embed interactive animations or manipulate everything with code — Rive empowers you to work the way you want.
- Tiny file size: Rive files are a fraction of the size of videos, GIFs, image sequences, or JSON-based formats. Whether you bundle your animations or deliver them remotely, our optimized format helps keep your app small.
- Entirely open-source: Our runtimes are transparent, giving you the ability to evaluate, contribute, or modify them.
- Designed for control: Our runtimes give you the power to easily control your Rive files on any platform. Simply play the file as designed in the editor or manipulate everything with code.
Rive Renderer
A breakthrough in real-time vector graphics
The Rive Renderer can draw an unprecedented amount of vectors on screen. Everything on the screen animates at 120 fps with perfect quality.
A technological leap
The Rive Renderer draws an unprecedented amount of vectors on screen. Everything animates and deforms without losing quality. Graphics remain crisp and clear regardless of scale, resolution, or device. Best of all, it doesn’t require new hardware.
Perfect text
You don’t have to sacrifice quality for speed – the Renderer delivers both. Text appears perfectly crisp at any size, thanks to analytic antialiasing. You can fill the screen with animated text that looks perfectly sharp, all without making a dent in framerate.
Rive GameKit for Flutter
The Rive GameKit for Flutter is the first product to take advantage of the Renderer. It’s available now as a technical preview.
Unlocks new features
Rive runs on many platforms. These platforms use different renderers with varying features. Making visuals consistent and performant across all requires effort. It also means we can’t quickly implement highly requested features (like blurs and drop shadows) since not all renderers support them.
The Rive Renderer allows us to support all new features across platforms while maintaining visual fidelity with the Editor. It’s also much faster at rendering Rive content than other platform renderers.
