Spinners

Indicate the loading state of a component or page with Bootstrap spinners, built entirely with HTML, CSS, and no JavaScript.

Border spinner

Use the border spinners for a lightweight loading indicator.

Loading...
<div class="spinner-border" role="status">
  <span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>
</div>

Colors

The border spinner uses currentColor for its border-color, meaning you can customize the color with text color utilities. You can use any of our text color utilities on the standard spinner.

</div>

Growing spinner

<div class="spinner-grow" role="status">
  <span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>
</div>

Once again, this spinner is built with currentColor, so you can easily change its appearance with text color utilities. Here it is in blue, along with the supported variants.

</div>

Alignment

Spinners in Bootstrap are built with rems, currentColor, and display: inline-flex. This means they can easily be resized, recolored, and quickly aligned.

Margin

Use margin utilities like .m-5 for easy spacing.

Loading...
<div class="spinner-border m-5" role="status">
  <span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>
</div>

Placement

Use flexbox utilities, float utilities, or text alignment utilities to place spinners exactly where you need them in any situation.

Flex
Loading...
<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <div class="spinner-border" role="status">
    <span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>
  </div>
</div>
Loading...
<div class="d-flex align-items-center">
  <strong>Loading...</strong>
  <div class="spinner-border ms-auto" role="status" aria-hidden="true"></div>
</div>

Floats
Loading...
<div class="clearfix">
  <div class="spinner-border float-right" role="status">
    <span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>
  </div>
</div>

Text align
Loading...
<div class="text-center">
  <div class="spinner-border" role="status">
    <span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>
  </div>
</div>

Size

Add .spinner-border-sm and .spinner-grow-sm to make a smaller spinner that can quickly be used within other components.

Loading...
Loading...
<div class="spinner-border spinner-border-sm" role="status">
  <span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>
</div>
<div class="spinner-grow spinner-grow-sm" role="status">
  <span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>
</div>

Or, use custom CSS or inline styles to change the dimensions as needed.

Loading...
<div class="spinner-border" style="width: 3rem; height: 3rem;" role="status">
  <span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>
</div>
<div class="spinner-grow" style="width: 3rem; height: 3rem;" role="status">
  <span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>
</div>
