4.1.1 - 2021-09-01

Changed

4.0.0 - 2018-05-06

Changed

• Switched from requestAnimationFrame back to CSS keyframe animations for better performance.
• In order to preserve compatibility with the style-src 'self'; Content Security Policy, animations are now defined via an external CSS file rather than inserted dynamically.

Add the following to your page to use one of the preset animations:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="node_modules/spin.js/spin.css"/>

You can also define custom opacity animations in your own CSS file and select them via the animation option.

Fixed

• A transparent shadow is now set by default to resolve aliased lines in certain browsers (issue #355).

Removed

• opacity and trail options (define a custom opacity animation instead).
• Support for Internet Explorer 9 (it doesn't support keyframe animations).
• fps option (only used for IE 9).

3.1.0 - 2017-11-26

Added

• Support for custom box-shadows with corrected positioning (issue #35).
• fadeColor option to customize the color that lines fade to (issue #30).

Added

• Support for Content Security Policy style-src 'self'; option (issue #115 and issue #229).
• CONTRIBUTING.md file.

Changed

• Rewritten in TypeScript.
• Replaced dynamic CSS keyframe animations with requestAnimationFrame.
• Unified animation logic in all browsers.
• Moved internal functions out of Spinner instance.
• Website now uses native range inputs rather than a polyfill, and doesn't depend on jQuery.
