NProgress is a tiny JavaScript library that renders a slim, YouTube-style progress bar with realistic trickle animations. It is controlled via simple start/done/set/inc calls and is popular for Ajax-heavy apps, Turbolinks, and Pjax.

Use cases

  • show a slim loading bar during ajax requests
  • add a youtube-style top progress bar to my site
  • loading indicator for turbolinks page transitions
  • progress bar for pjax navigation
  • incremental loading bar while images load

When to choose

  • you want a minimal, dependency-free progress bar in the browser
  • you need a loading indicator for Ajax, Turbolinks, or Pjax apps

When to avoid

  • you need full-featured progress components with rich UI (use a component library)
  • you need progress bars outside the browser, e.g. CLI or native apps
