# Spinners

###### Bootstrap spinners are animated loading indicators used to show that a process is ongoing, available in various styles and sizes.

CSS "spinners" can be used to show the loading state in your projects. They're built only with HTML and CSS, meaning you don't need any JavaScript to create them. You will, however, need some custom JavaScript to toggle their visibility. Their appearance, alignment, and sizing can be easily customized with our amazing utility classes.

## Color spinners

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
