Read more about this package here.
A React Native Loader Component which uses Airbnb's Lottie for beautiful loader animations.
This library uses lottie-react-native to render loader animations. Therefore this library need to be installed and linked to your project before installing this package.
Follow the official instruction and linking guide here.
No need to do anything specific, just install the package itself. Expo already has Lottie library API available and it will take care of the rest.
yarn add react-native-animated-loader
or
npm install react-native-animated-loader --save
import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet,Text } from 'react-native';
import AnimatedLoader from "react-native-animated-loader";
export default class Loader extends React.Component {

super(props);
this.state = { visible: false };
}
componentDidMount() {
setInterval(() => {
this.setState({
visible: !this.state.visible
});
}, 2000);
}
render() {
const { visible } = this.state;
return (
<AnimatedLoader
