When to use it

Loading states, processing indicators, or ambient backgrounds where a looping radial pulse fits the brand (dark-mode, tech, neon themes).

When not to

Light backgrounds (hardcoded dark body color). Contexts requiring a determinate progress indicator — this communicates indeterminate loading only.

Working with an AI agent

Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:

Change the accent colors: set --accent-cyan to #00ff99 and --accent-magenta to #ff9900, then slow the ripple cycle to 3.6s by editing animation-duration on .c07-ripple__wave. Theme: dark tokens live in :root, the light variant in :root[data-theme="light"]; ?theme=light or a {type:'forever:theme'} postMessage switches at runtime.

Safe to edit

  • ripple cycle duration (2.6s in animation shorthand)
  • ring colors (--accent-iris, --accent-cyan, --accent-magenta)
  • core size (13% width/height)
  • stagger delay between waves (.65s increments)
  • core glow spread (box-shadow 24px)
  • theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)

Keep intact

  • visibilitychange pause in IIFE
  • prefers-reduced-motion guard
  • role=img + aria-label on wrapper
  • nth-child stagger delays
  • theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)

Known limitations

  • Light re-theme via the [data-theme=light] token block; catalog bg/accent describe the dark default
  • Purely decorative; does not communicate actual load progress

  • DNA HelixTwo columns of 10 glowing dots swing left-right in opposite phases, tracing a rotating DNA double helix. Cycling status messages fade in below.
  • Skeleton ShimmerDark content-placeholder card with avatar circle and staggered text bars swept by a looping gold-to-tan shimmer gradient. Pure CSS, no JS logic.
  • Particle Orbit18 glowing iris, cyan, and magenta particles orbit a white core on wobbling elliptical paths; trailing fill creates a comet-like motion blur effect.
  • Equalizer BarsSeven pill-shaped vermillion-to-tan gradient bars bounce at staggered offsets, mimicking an audio equalizer. Pure CSS scaleY animation.
  • Conic ProgressA circular conic-gradient ring fills from 0–100% with a lime arc and a blurred gold glow layer; a live numeric counter updates in sync.
