Activity Loader

A component that indicates to users that we're processing their data or that a page is loading.

Overview

A good loading strategy is essential to design a seamless experience for users. The activity loader is one of the components to achieve that goal.

With a simple message that appears on the screen, the activity loader informs users that Mirakl is performing an action under the hood.

The component has a title and a progress bar (mandatory), and one or several subtitles (optional).

Guidelines

Do not overuse the activity loader, as it can create uncertainty.

When to use

Loaders should be used:

  • when users are waiting for Mirakl to process a task.

When not to use

Loaders should not be used:

  • when the task is known to take some time, importing large amounts of data, for example, as it can bring uncertainty.

  • when the task is known to take very little time. Avoid the strobe effect.
