AnimCJK
About 說明 / 说明
"Draw animated... Chinese characters (Hanzi) in correct stroke order using svg, free open-source code." Includes 7197 images.
"This project is derived from the remarquable Makemeahanzi project which is designed to display Chinese characters... Many characters were modified or added in AnimCJK (between three or four thousand at the moment) for various reasons:
- ...many Chinese traditional characters have a different stroke order, or have a different glyph, or have a different stroke direction or have no entry in Makemeahanzi.
- many character shapes were just slightly modified to look prettier.
- some commonly used (but not frequently used) Chinese characters have no entry in Makemeahanzi." (parsimonhi, 9th August 2022)

汉字部件典 Character Component Dictionary
About 說明 / 说明
A dictionary of Chinese characters (total of 93888) shown broken down into their components, but also shown as components of other characters.
For example, '重' can be described as ⿻𡈼旦, and it is itself also a component of other characters, which are grouped in the example below under 合體字 / 合体字 Combinations.
Note, the character decompositions are only graphical - they do not indicate how the character was first formed ('etymology').
See the Readme for further details.
Also of interest may be the Radically online app, written in typescript, which can be used offline.
