Build interactive applications with 2D and 3D animations, animated elements, add elegant UI effects to your applications, and more using Java animation libraries.


Java animation libraries are extremely useful in creating elaborate and graphical data visualization through a variety of animations such as Linear Graphs, Bar Plot Races, Scatter Plots, Horizontal and Vertical Movements in Bar Charts, Brownian Motion, Dynamic Axes, and more. It’s important to note that Java itself cannot create animation. Therefore, an external animation framework or library needs to be integrated into the program to pass a sequence of image frames and create a movement effect, i.e., animation.


Check out the below list to find the trending Java animation libraries for your data visualization applications:
