Platform Considerations

In order to support some of our more low level features, Rive brings some of its C++ runtime to Flutter.

Platform Technology Dependencies
iOS FFI statically linked
Android FFI rive_native.so
Windows FFI rive_native.dll
Mac FFI statically linked
Web WASM rive_native.js, rive_native.wasm

iOS & Mac

We use CocoaPods to build and statically link to your project the portions of Rive's C++ runtime that are necessary for text features.

Android

We use Gradle & CMake to build rive_text.so. Rive's runtime uses modern features that are only available on newer NDKs. For this reason we recommend updating your build.gradle to include ndkVersion "27.2.12479018".

android {
  compileSdkVersion 35
  ndkVersion "27.2.12479018"
  ...
}

Windows

We use CMake to build rive_plugin.dll. Note that Clang compiler is required, see here for how to enable it in your Visual Studio.

Web

We use Emscripten to build a WASM and JS file which are statically served via UNPKG similarly to how Flutter delivers the CanvasKit WASM file.
