Paste Motion: The Figma Plugin That Turns Animated Icon Code into GIF or SVG

Paste Motion is a Figma plugin for designers and developers who work with animated icon libraries. Paste animated icon component code from popular libraries — components built on motion/react — and the plugin live-renders the animated icon inside Figma. Hover to preview the animation, tweak size and color, then export as an animated GIF or add a clean SVG to your canvas.

Key Features of Paste Motion:

Animated icon components built on motion/react. Works with popular animated icon libraries and custom React components.

No. The plugin has zero network access — code is transpiled and rendered entirely inside the plugin sandbox. Nothing is uploaded, logged, or stored.

What can I export?

An animated GIF file for presentations and documentation, or a real vector node on your canvas created from the rendered SVG markup — fully editable paths, with currentColor resolved to the color you picked.
