new_loading_indicator

A fork of the loading_indicator package, providing a rich collection of loading animations for Flutter applications. The original package is unmaintained, has outdated dependencies, poor documentation, and was written without a single test. This fork aims to:

• Modernize the codebase for compatibility with the latest Flutter/Dart SDK versions
• Update outdated dependencies
• Add comprehensive test coverage
• Provide detailed documentation for maintainability
• Ensure ongoing maintenance and active development

Visit the example on GitLab Pages for a live demo.
