About

This is not just a generator; it is a comprehensive library of 50+ algorithmic loading states designed for enterprise-grade applications. While standard libraries offer a handful of generic spinners, this tool covers every UI context: from subtle micro-interactions (typing dots) to heavy data-processing visualization (radar, DNA, server scanning).

The library strictly adheres to the Composite-Only performance model. Complex shapes are achieved using mathematical tricks with box-shadow, conic-gradient, and clip-path to minimize DOM nodes. For example, the Newton's Cradle and Planetary Orbit loaders rely on precise transform-origin calculations to simulate physics without JavaScript.

Formulas

Advanced loaders utilize Conic Gradients to create circular progress without SVG. The angle θ controls the segment size:

background: conic-gradient(C1 0% P%, transparent P% 100%)

For 3D rotations (Cube, Flip), we utilize the perspective projection matrix. The depth perception is controlled by:

transform: perspective(200px) rotateX(α) rotateY(β)

Frequently Asked Questions

They use CSS3 transforms (`perspective`, `rotate3d`, `transform-style: preserve-3d`). This leverages the browser's GPU compositing layer to render basic 3D geometry using standard HTML elements.
Single-element loaders reduce the DOM size, which improves React hydration time and keeps your HTML clean. We achieve this using `::before`, `::after` pseudo-elements and complex `box-shadow` layering.
Visually, yes. However, purely visual loaders like "Radar" or "Glitch" can be distracting. We recommend adding `prefers-reduced-motion` media queries to your implementation to serve a static version for sensitive users.
