Spinner

A spinner is a visual indicator of loading or processing, reassuring users that an action is in progress within interfaces.

Types

Spinners are an indeterminate indicator which express an unspecified amount of wait time. They should be used when progress isn’t detectable, or if it’s not necessary to indicate how long an activity will take.


  1. Default spinner
    Spinner is a circular progress indicators that inform users about the status of ongoing processes, such as submitting a form or saving updates. It's tied to user-triggered actions.
  1. Skeleton
    Skeleton are simplified versions of components used on an initial page load to indicate that the information on the page has not fully loaded yet. They should only appear for only a few seconds, disappearing once components and content populate the page.

Default spinner overview

After the user action, the spinner will replace the content and be center on the interface. Spinners attract attention because of their animation so they should be used sparingly. Ideally, only one spinner should be used at a time.

Skeleton overview

Only use skeleton on container-based components like panels, data tables, buttons,... Never represent toast notifications, overflow menus, dropdown items, modals, and loaders with skeleton. Elements inside a modal may have a skeleton state, but the modal itself should not.

On the container of spinner element, you have to set:

  • role="alert" and aria-live="polite" attributes ; the screen reader will alert the user something is loading if the user is not busy somewhere else on the page
  • aria-busy="true"
  • an explicite value for aria-label attribute:
    • FR: Merci de patienter... Votre contenu est en cours de chargement
    • EN: Please wait... Your content is loading
    • NL: Even geduld aub... Uw inhoud wordt geladen
    • DE: Bitte warten... Ihr Inhalt wird geladen

Once the spinner is replaced by the loaded content, you have to:

  • update aria-busy attribute to false
  • remove aria-label attribute

To built a spinner on your page, put a <div> with rs-spinner class.

By default, the spinner is centered. But if you want it on the left, just add rs-no-margin-left class.
