Lottie as zip

[aminerol]

Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Today I used patch-package to patch mime-db@1.52.0 for the project I'm working on.

Here is the diff that solved my problem:

diff --git a/node_modules/mime-db/db.json b/node_modules/mime-db/db.json

Why should it be a lottie extension of applications/zip?

[aminerol]

Lottie introduces this new format for performance purposes and its just a zip. this is from their doc website

dotLottie is an open-source file format that aggregates one or more Lottie files and their associated resources into a single file. They are ZIP archives compressed with the Deflate compression method and carry the file extension of ".lottie".

That PR resolves this correct?

The pr is the preferred way to do this, adding a new mimetype.

There a lots of filetypes which are zip plus some structure, zip would be full of extension types if we took this approach.
