If you can convert it to Lottie format https://github.com/dnfield/lottie-flutter

There's a request to support it

+1 to support

The Lottie format might be more than this really needs, and quite honestly I've been frustrated at times with the ways the lottie spec is or isn't documented.
I'm going to venture a guess that this wouldn't be super difficult to support as a plugin for Flutter. Seems interesting to me.

Important question: Is the desire to use this at compile time or runtime?
Dynamic: Would you want to load these icons, for example, from a network or other external storage source without recompiling the application?
Static: Would you want this compiled into generated dart code the way vitool does it for it's current animated icon support?
Static will perform better, dynamic gives you more flexibility (which may not be needed).

This 'pieces of art' are used in very precises cases so they wont be a lot and there are very lightweight so we can package them with the build.
In design perception is first citizen so performance should be the guideline.
I see also other advantages in static compilation, if it's dart you can control and animate parameters like colours. Could lead to really interesting effects !

So I just found this https://github.com/flutter/flutter/tree/master/dev/tools/vitool - also we are not supposed to use it. Maybe we can just use it :)
Did anyone try this?

It would be so exciting to support both dynamic and static.

Does anyone knows a way to use the files exported from shapeshifter into flutter?
I managed to design something I like but I can't find a way to use it on my flutter app to save my life
MasiaVittorio commentedon Apr 1, 2021
I think a way to expose vitool for everyone to use and generate dart files for their custom animated icons would be very beneficial to Flutter, allowing us to design and share many more icons to make Flutter apps engaging and above the competing multiplatform frameworks
