NPM
npm install @uiball/loaders
Yarn
yarn add @uiball/loaders
Import individual loader components. Use them wherever you like. The full list can be found on the website.
import { Waveform } from '@uiball/loaders'
export default function PageSection({ isLoading }) {
return (
<div aria-live="polite" aria-busy={isLoading}>
{isLoading && <Waveform />}
</div>
)
}
This package is designed to maximize the benefits of tree shaking; so when you use a modern bundler like Webpack, Rollup or Parcel, and import { Orbit } from '@uiball/loaders'
only the tiny code for the Orbit loader ends up in your app (most are less than 1kb).
This is a pure ESM library, so no require()
-ing from CommonJS.
Next.js doesn't transpile ESM modules by default and will throw an error, but you can add support with this package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/next-transpile-modules.
Loaders make use of CSS custom properties (CSS variables) and keyframe animations, which work great in all modern browsers. Internet Explorer is not supported, however.
Each loader has different defaults. You can see them on the website. Click on an individual loader and open the "source" sidebar. Default values will be listed at the top, followed by HTML and CSS if you want to copy/paste rather than use the React components.
The size of the loader. Specifically, this defines the largest dimension (height or width) in pixels.
<Ring size={35} />
Any valid CSS color value is accepted, so #000000
, red
, hsl(13, 68%, 63%)
and var(--my-custom-color)
are all a-okay.
<Ring color="papayawhip" />
The speed of the animation. Each loader uses this number a little differently (individual parts of a given loader might have different timing), but in general this number represents the duration of a single full animation loop in seconds, so smaller = faster.
<Ring speed="1.75" />
The width / stroke in pixels of line-based loaders like <Waveform />
or <RaceBy />
. You can see if an individual loader supports this property on the website.
