Kolam Line Loader: a rangoli loading animation

When to use the Kolam Line Loader

Kolam is a line pattern drawn round a grid of dots, so a line drawing itself suits it well. Use this kolam animation when you want a calmer loader with one colour. It works best on a plain dark background where the line stands out.

Add the Kolam Line Loader to React or Next.js

1. Pick a component. Open it in ExodeUI to change its text and colours, or keep it as it is.
2. Download the .bexode file and put it in your public folder.
3. Install the runtime with npm i exodeui.
4. Render it with ExodeUICanvas. Taps and hovers work out of the box, and fireTrigger plays it from your code.

import { ExodeUICanvas, useExodeUI } from 'exodeui';

export function KolamLineLoader() {
  const { setEngine, fireTrigger } = useExodeUI();

  return (
    <>
      <div style={{ width: 400, height: 300 }}>
        <ExodeUICanvas
          src="/ui-gallery/files/kolam-line-loader.bexode"
          autoPlay
          onReady={setEngine}
          style={{ width: '100%', height: '100%' }}
        />
      </div>
      {/* Optional: taps on the canvas already work */}
      <button onClick={() => fireTrigger('in_whirl')}>Play from code</button>
    </>
  );
}

Frequently asked questions

Is the Kolam Line Loader free to use?

Yes. Try it here, open it in ExodeUI on the free Community plan or download the .exode file.

What does the Kolam Line Loader do?

A single line draws itself round a grid of dots, then starts again. It loops by itself. Tap the rangoli to spin it.

How do I stop it when my content is ready?

Render it while your data loads and remove it from the page when the data arrives. The animation loops until you do.

Can I restyle the Kolam Line Loader for my brand?

Yes. Open it in ExodeUI and every colour, label, shape and timing can be edited. Any names and prices in it are sample content.

Can my code control it?

Yes. Fire its trigger (in_whirl) with fireTrigger from useExodeUI. Your own code still handles what the action does, such as saving the choice.
