Example

Lottie
import { useRef, useEffect } from 'react';
import { Button, StyleSheet, View } from 'react-native';
import LottieView from 'lottie-react-native';

export default function App() {
  const animation = useRef<LottieView>(null);
  useEffect(() => {
    // You can control the ref programmatically, rather than using autoPlay
    // animation.current?.play();
  }, []);

  return (
    <View style={styles.animationContainer}>
      <LottieView
        autoPlay
        ref={animation}
        style={{
          width: 200,
          height: 200,
          backgroundColor: '#eee',
        }}
        // Find more Lottie files at https://lottiefiles.com/featured
        source={require('./assets/gradientBall.json')}
      />
      <View style={styles.buttonContainer}>
        <Button
          title="Restart Animation"
          onPress={() => {
            animation.current?.reset();
            animation.current?.play();
          }}
        />
      </View>
