Nanobar is an ultra-lightweight (~699 bytes gzipped) JavaScript library for creating progress bars in the browser, with no jQuery dependency. It renders a fixed or targeted progress bar that you advance with a simple go(percentage) call.

Use cases

  • show a slim loading bar at the top of a page during ajax requests
  • add a lightweight progress indicator without jQuery
  • display upload or download progress in the browser
  • create a minimal progress bar with custom styling
  • indicate page transition loading progress

When to choose

  • you need a tiny, dependency-free progress bar for any browser including legacy IE
  • you want a simple API (just go(percentage)) with CSS-customizable bars

When to avoid

  • you need rich progress UI like circular indicators, labels, or file-based progress
  • you need a library under active development or modern framework integration
