About this UI Snippet

Lottie Success Checkmark Loader — Animated Processing State With Checkmark Completion

Screenshot of the Lottie Success Checkmark Loader snippet rendered live

This snippet shows the common "processing then success" loading pattern using the real lottie-web library rather than a CSS spinner. A small pulsing circle animation plays while work is simulated, then smoothly hands off to a static green checkmark.

Loading the animation

The lottie-web UMD build is loaded from a CDN via cdnUrls, exposing a global lottie object. runSequence() calls lottie.loadAnimation({ container, renderer: 'svg', loop: true, autoplay: true, animationData }) against an inline animation JSON object — no external .json file is fetched, keeping the snippet fully self-contained.

The handoff to success

After roughly two seconds, lottieInstance.stop() halts the Lottie player, the Lottie container is hidden, and a plain SVG checkmark inside a green circle is revealed with a spring-like CSS scale transition — a lightweight way to combine a vector animation library with a simple CSS-driven completion state.

Restartable

The "Run again" button calls the same runSequence() function, which destroys the previous Lottie instance before creating a fresh one, so the whole processing-to-success cycle can be replayed without leaking animation instances.

Got questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

No. The animationData object is defined inline in the JavaScript, so the snippet is fully self-contained aside from loading the lottie-web library itself.

A setTimeout simulates completed work; in a real app you would call lottieInstance.stop() and swap to the checkmark inside your actual success callback instead of a fixed delay.

Yes — clone the pattern used for the checkmark, swapping in a red circle and an X icon, and branch the timeout callback based on your real success/failure result.
