Spinners indicate that an operation is in progress when the duration is unknown. Use them for loading states where a determinate progress bar isn't practical.

<wa-spinner></wa-spinner>

Size

Spinners are sized based on the current font size. To change the size, set font-size on the spinner itself or on a parent element.

<wa-spinner></wa-spinner>
<wa-spinner style="font-size: 2rem;"></wa-spinner>
<wa-spinner style="font-size: 3rem;"></wa-spinner>

Track Width

Link to This Section

Use the --track-width custom property to change the thickness of the spinner's track.

<wa-spinner style="font-size: 50px; --track-width: 10px;"></wa-spinner>

Colors

Link to This Section

Use the --track-color and --indicator-color custom properties to recolor the spinner.

<wa-spinner style="font-size: 3rem; --indicator-color: var(--wa-color-success-fill-loud); --track-color: var(--wa-color-success-fill-quiet);"></wa-spinner>

Speed
