Loader

The Loader component is a React component that wraps the LinearProgress component. The LinearProgress component in React is part of the Material-UI library. It serves as a visual indicator for ongoing processes, such as loading an app, submitting a form, or saving updates. Here are the key points about this component:

Purpose

  • Linear Progress components inform users about the status of ongoing tasks.
  • They indicate how long an operation will take (determinate mode) or visualize an unspecified wait time (indeterminate mode).

Usage

  • Import the component from @mui/material.
  • Use it within your React components to display a linear progress bar.

Variants

  • Indeterminate: Represents an unspecified wait time.
  • Determinate: Shows how long an operation will take (requires setting a value).
  • Buffer: Displays a buffer progress (useful for file uploads or downloads).

Customization

  • You can customize the color, size, and other properties of the LinearProgress component.

For more details and additional customization options, refer to the Material-UI documentationopen in new window ¹.

Example

import { LinearProgress } from "@mui/material";
import { FC } from "react";

/**
 * Renders a linear progress loader.
 *
 * @returns {ReactNode} A React element representing the linear progress loader.
 */
export const Loader: FC = () => {
  return <LinearProgress />;
};
