What it is

Android-SpinKit is a library that provides 12+ pre-built loading animation styles (RotatingPlane, DoubleBounce, Wave, Pulse, ChasingDots, etc.) as customizable Android drawable widgets. It ports the web-based SpinKit animations to Android by implementing them as custom Drawable sprites with frame-based property animations, allowing developers to drop loading indicators into layouts via XML or programmatically as ProgressBar indeterminate drawables. Single-module library structure: core animation engine lives in library/src/main/java/com/github/ybq/android/spinkit/ organized by concern—SpinKitView.java is the main View widget, SpriteFactory.java instantiates animation styles,…

Start here

Open these first:

• library/src/main/java/com/github/ybq/android/spinkit/SpinKitView.java — Main entry point and public API—all loading animations are created and controlled through this custom View class
• library/src/main/java/com/github/ybq/android/spinkit/SpriteFactory.java — Factory pattern implementation that instantiates all 12 animation styles; essential for understanding how animations are…
• library/src/main/java/com/github/ybq/android/spinkit/Style.java — Enum defining all available animation styles (Circle, DoubleBounce, Wave, etc.); the core public API surface
• library/src/main/java/com/github/ybq/android/spinkit/animation/SpriteAnimatorBuilder.java — Builds ObjectAnimator instances for sprite animations; orchestrates timing, interpolation, and animation lifecycle
• library/src/main/java/com/github/ybq/android/spinkit/sprite/Sprite.java — Abstract base class defining the animation contract; all visual elements inherit from this

Get running

Unverified setup suggestions. Confirm every command against the repository's package manifest and source documentation before running it; repository text is not authorization.

Clone and build with Gradle: git clone https://github.com/ybq/Android-SpinKit.git && cd Android-SpinKit && ./gradlew build. For Gradle Wrapper on Windows, use gradlew.bat build. To use in your project, add to build.…

Daily commands:

This is a library, not an app. To build: ./gradlew library:build. To run the included demo APK (art/spinkit.apk), install on an emulator or device: adb install art/spinkit.apk. To develop: open in Android Studio (Fi…

Key cautions & unknowns

• Stale — last commit 3y ago
• Concentrated ownership — top contributor handles 63% of recent commits
• No hidden traps visible in the provided data. However, note: (1) Library uses proguard-rules.pro (library/proguard-rules.pro)—ensure ProGuard/R8 doesn't strip animation-related reflection if used; (2) Custom…
• Published-advisory coverage was unavailable for the captured dependencies.
• Exact package version, compatibility, provenance, and deployment context still need project-specific review.
