<script setup>
import { creator } from 'tw-epic-spinners';

Utility

Size

The spinner-size-* utility class allows you to quickly define the size of a spinner.

It follows a similar pattern to Tailwind CSS spacing utilities.

<div class="spinner-fulfilling-square spinner-size-16" />

Using arbitrary values:

<div class="spinner-fulfilling-square spinner-size-[70px]" />

Duration

The spinner-duration-* utility class allows you control the duration.

It follows also a similar pattern to Tailwind CSS Transition duration utilities.

<div class="spinner-fulfilling-square spinner-duration-1000" />

Using arbitrary values:

<div class="spinner-fulfilling-square spinner-duration-[2.5s]" />

Color

Color can be controlled by Tailwind CSS Text Color utility.

<div class="spinner-fulfilling-square text-sky-600" />
