The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for generating and modifying digital animations based on user interactions with a unique user interface portraying a one-dimensional layer motion element and/or elements for generating and utilizing animation path for digital design objects and animation layers. The disclosed system can provide a dynamic one-dimensional layer motion element that adapts to a selected animation layer and portrays selectable animation frames from the animation layer. The disclosed systems can provide options for generating and modifying various frames of the digital animation based on user interactions with the one-dimensional layer motion element, an animation timeline, and/or a corresponding animation canvas. Additionally, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems also generate path animations with complex animation effects based on user selection of animation paths, digital design objects of animation layers, and corresponding selectable path animation feature tools.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for initializing an application on an electronic device. In one aspect, a method includes detecting, in an electronic device, an instruction to initialize an application from a package installed on the electronic device, the application configured to be embedded in a page conforming with hypertext markup language (HTML) and use an HTML compliant variable for initialization, wherein the application is not initialized in an HTML compatible browser application, obtaining, in response to the instruction and from a file in the package, an application file name for an application file and at least one value for the HTML compliant variable, loading the application file identified by the application file name such that the application is initialized and executed on the electronic device, and providing the value to the application for the initialization.
