# init(dictionaryLiteral:)

Creates an animation library from a variadic list of key-value pairs.

## Declaration

```swift
init(dictionaryLiteral elements: (String, AnimationResource)...)
```

## Parameters

- `elements`: A list of key-value pairs that make up the dictionary. Each key is a unique animation name, and each value is an animation resource.

## Discussion

Discussion Use the ExpressibleByDictionaryLiteral initializer by directly assigning the library to a dictionary literal. let animationLibrary: AnimationLibraryComponent = [     "idle": idleAnimation,     "walk": walkAnimation ]
