Not to rain on this project, but it seems to not be actively maintained.

For others running into this, there is an alternative library that is maintained by the Xamarin team, supports both Xamarin Forms and MAUI and seems fairly regularly updated. It worked well for our Xamarin Forms project and we will use that instead.

https://github.com/mono/SkiaSharp.Extended (must use prerelease nugets as of now)

This article was helpful although it explains for MAUI: https://cedricgabrang.medium.com/implementing-lottie-animations-in-your-net-maui-application-62bd484af651
