Description
The C++ files in the tree are generated by a tool; for example:
https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml/blob/fb7a83b668baa612b5cc594678746dd8c1f8d8bd/src/controls/dev/AnimatedIcon/AnimatedVisuals/AnimatedAcceptVisualSource.cpp#L2-L19
While the lottie tool is open source, the JSON files do not appear to be public anywhere; please make these available as well.
```
PS C:\Users\fred\code\microsoft-ui-xaml> wsl find . -iname '*.json'

Research direction
Start with src/controls/dev/AnimatedIcon/AnimatedVisuals/AnimatedAcceptVisualSource.cpp and inspect the generated-file comment and surrounding AnimatedVisuals files. Trace how the lottie tool's source inputs are handled, then determine where the corresponding AnimatedAcceptVisualSource.json and other VisualSource JSON files should be released. Done means the source JSON files are publicly available with the generated C++ files.
