Measured entry

kibo-spinner

progressminimal-flatdo not use

A TypeScript React spinner collection shipped as a shadcn registry item. It offers icon-based and inline SVG variants, relies on lucide-react and a cn utility, and delegates its default variant to a spinner imported through the author's monorepo alias.

This entry is a do-not-use verdict

It is published because it broke, not in spite of it. The run stopped at the production build, and the recorded output is printed further down this page.

Verdict

Do not publish this item unchanged. The build fails because its default branch imports a base spinner through an unresolved repository-only alias. It needs a shadcn-style setup plus a corrected local import before it can mount; teams seeking drop-in code should avoid it.

Use it if

  • You want several loading indicator styles behind one variant prop.
  • Your app already has Tailwind animation utilities, a cn helper, and a compatible base spinner.
  • You are comfortable replacing the repository-specific import during installation.

Skip it if

  • You need a registry item that builds unchanged outside the author's monorepo.
  • Your project does not use shadcn conventions or path aliases.
  • You need loading indicators that honor reduced-motion preferences without further work.
  • You want a dependency-free spinner rather than Lucide icons and utility classes.

In a non-shadcn project, add lucide-react, provide an equivalent cn class-merging helper, configure the source alias and Tailwind spin utility, then add a local base spinner or replace the default branch and its repository-specific import. Consider adding reduced-motion behavior for the animated variants.
