Build a Character Skeleton in Your Browser | LoongBones

Episode 2 of the LoongBones tutorial series — building a complete character skeleton, entirely in your browser. No install, no download. By the end you'll know the four building blocks every skeleton is made of: bones, slots, and display objects — and how parent-child relationships make them move. LoongBones is built by one of the original DragonBones Pro developers. If you're coming from DragonBones or Spine, the workflow will feel familiar — same bones, same slots, same keyframes. 🎁 7-day free trial: https://www.loongbones.app/ COMING FROM DRAGONBONES OR SPINE? LoongBones imports and exports Spine / DragonBones files. Bring your existing rig in, edit it in the browser, export it back. No lock-in.
