No issue to link – spurred by some of the conversations in #16098

Still WIP

Changes made

  • Updated component API so that loading is no longer optional. I don't think it ever makes sense to have a spinner without a loading state.
  • Added support for delaying when the spinner appears on screen when loading flips to true. This can help minimize UI jank during state transitions
  • Added support for defining how the spinner children prop is hidden (hiding the content via CSS vs unmounting the component entirely)
  • Cleaned up code in general, to make sure that there are fully-dependent links between constants and the rest of the UI, and also to minimize how often values are reconstructed on re-renders
  • Made sure that by default, state isn't wiped for the children prop when loading toggles between true and false

@Parkreiner @BrunoQuaresma Does it solve the following issue?
Notice the weird spinning on the workspace proxy drop-down button.

I'm guessing you're talking about the "boomerang" animation where the circle isn't perfectly centered as it rotates? In which case, no. This is basically a "pet project" PR I started because there was some known buggy behavior that we were okay with shipping with #16098. I promised I'd be able to fix those problems later, and this PR is basically a "brain break" between my other tickets

Basically, the PR is more concerned with runtime behavior for HTML/JavaScript/UX. I'd want to put the animation fix in a separate PR, because while it looks wonky, it doesn't produce invalid HTML or cause UI flickering

Yes I am talking about the non centered spinner animation.

If this OR doesn't address that, I am happy to extract that to a sperate issue.

@Parkreiner this Spinner component was based on the Radix Spinner including the API https://www.radix-ui.com/themes/docs/components/spinner
