# Maxi/Minimize animated icon

> Maxi/Minimize micro animation for React and shadcn. It toggles between two states on click; free MIT Lottie and SVG.

The Maxi/Minimize animated icon toggles between two states on click in 0.33 s and pairs with Maxi/Minimize V2 and Maximize 2 in the action set. Its static SVGs cover the maximize and minimize states, so the resting icon still shows which one is active.

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/lottie-web@5.13.0/build/player/lottie_light.min.js"></script>
<script>
  const el = document.getElementById('maximize-minimize-icon');
  const a = lottie.loadAnimation({ container: el, renderer: 'svg', loop: false, autoplay: false, path: 'https://useanimations.com/icons/maximize-minimize.json' });
  const motion = matchMedia('(prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)');
  let isOn = true; // Frame 0 is on; the final frame is off.
  el.addEventListener('click', () => { isOn = !isOn; if (motion.matches) a.goToAndStop(isOn ? 0 : a.totalFrames - 1, true); else { a.setDirection(isOn ? -1 : 1); a.play(); } });
</script>
```

## Other versions

- [Maxi/Minimize V2](https://useanimations.com/icons/maximize-minimize-v2): Maxi/Minimize V2 is longer at 1 s instead of 0.33 s and has the maximize-2 and minimize-2 states.

## FAQ

### Can my app decide whether Maxi/Minimize shows maximize or minimize?

Make it controlled: pass active and flip it in onClick, e.g. active={on} onClick={() => setOn(!on)}. true plays to the last frame and false back to the first; an icon that mounts with active already true starts there without animating, and with reduced motion it jumps instead of playing.

### How do I make Maxi/Minimize an accessible button?

Put its events on a real button with the render prop: render={(events, icon) => <button aria-label="Maxi/Minimize" aria-pressed={on} {...events}><span {...icon} /></button>}. The animation itself stays aria-hidden, and aria-pressed tells screen readers which state is on.
