In this article, we are going to learn how we can add spinner loader in NextJs. NextJS is a React-based framework. It has the power to Develop beautiful Web applications for different platforms like Windows, Linux, and mac.

Create NextJS Application: You can create a new NextJs project using the below command:
npx create-next-app gfg
Install the required package: Now we will install the react-loader-spinner package using the below command:

Adding the Spinner Loader: After installing the package we can easily add a spinner loader on any page in our app. For this example, we are going to add a loader to our homepage.
index.js
import React from 'react' ; import Loader from "react-loader-spinner" ; import "react-loader-spinner/dist/loader/css/react-spinner-loader.css" ; export default function SpinnerLoading(){ return ( <div> <h2>NextJs Spinner Loader - neveropen</h2> <Loader type= "Puff" color= "#00BFFF" height={100} width={100} timeout={3000} /> </div> ) } |
