Thinking Orbs

Meet Thinking Orbs

Thinking Orbs is a small component library for showing what an AI assistant or agent is doing. It provides animated indicators for reasoning, searching, working, waiting, retrying, and other states, so an interface can communicate progress without relying on a generic spinner. Developers can install the React package, use a plain JavaScript implementation, or add the native SwiftUI package to an Apple app. Each indicator can be adjusted through properties such as size, speed, color, shape, and rendering style. Optional shapes and renderers are imported separately. The library is available under an MIT license and includes a playground for comparing variants before integrating them.
