Getting Started

Run Rive on your platform of choice.

The Rive runtimes are open-source libraries that allow you to load and control your animations in apps, games, and websites. Dive into each of the subpages to get started!

How to use this guide

In this section you'll find runtime subpages that provide all the needed information and resources to get started on your platform of choice. See Installation and Getting Started below.

You'll also find pages dedicated to controlling your animation at runtime. For example, updating a state machine input or text run. See Animation Control and Interaction below.

Versioning

As we publish updates to our Rive editor, we will occasionally push updated runtimes to support the new features. See feature support for the required minimum runtime version needed for specific features.

In most cases, the newest runtimes will also support previous versions of your Rive assets, so you will not need to re-export assets to update to the latest runtimes.

There are a number of ways to export your Rive files in cases where re-exporting is necessary to take advantage of the latest features. Check out our documentation on exporting for more information.
