Learn VELATO with Real Code Examples

Learn Rust basics: ownership, cargo, project structure

Get familiar with Vello rendering engine and windowing (winit or wasm)

Study Lottie JSON spec (animations exported from After Effects via Bodymovin)

Use Velato to load simple animation and render frames

Progress to combining animations with interactive UI, user input, or game logic

Week 1: Load and display a simple Lottie animation in Rust desktop app

Week 2: Integrate animation with UI elements and user interactions

Week 3: Build responsive layout or multiple animations in a scene

Week 4: Target web via WASM and test web rendering (with WebGPU fallback if needed)

Week 5: Optimize performance and handle asset loading gracefully

What is Velato and how does it work with Lottie and Vello?

How do you render a Lottie animation in a Rust application using Velato?

What are the limitations of Velato compared to full Lottie‑spec implementations?

How do you target web browsers with WASM + WebGPU using Velato?

How do you combine multiple animations and UI interactivity in Rust with Velato?

Composition::from_str(lottie_json) -> parse animation

Renderer::new() -> init renderer

renderer.render(&comp, frame, transform, alpha, &mut scene) -> draw frame

Use winit or wasm event loop to handle render loop

Embed JSON or load at runtime as asset
