What are some cool loading animations I can create with JavaScript?

You can create various loading animations using CSS and JavaScript. For example, a bouncing loader, a spinning circle, or a pulsating dot.

Can you show me how to create a spinning circle loader?

Sure! You can use CSS for the animation and JavaScript to control its visibility. Here's a simple example:

<div class='loader'></div>
<style>
.loader {
  border: 8px solid #f3f3f3;
  border-top: 8px solid #3498db;
  border-radius: 50%;
  width: 50px;
  height: 50px;
  animation: spin 2s linear infinite;
}

@keyframes spin {
  0% { transform: rotate(0deg); }
  100% { transform: rotate(360deg); }
}
</style>

How can I make it disappear after loading?

You can use JavaScript to hide the loader after a certain event, like data loading. For example:

setTimeout(() => {
  document.querySelector('.loader').style.display = 'none';
}, 3000); // Hides loader after 3 seconds

Are there any libraries that can help with loading animations?

Yes, libraries like Lottie and SpinKit offer pre-built loading animations that you can easily integrate into your projects.
