## What it is
A React Native component library that displays a loading spinner overlay on top of the app UI. It supports customizable colors, sizes, animations, and overlay styling on Android and iOS.

## Use cases
- show a loading spinner while fetching data in react native
- display a full-screen loading overlay during api calls
- add an activity indicator modal to a react native app
- block user interaction while a task is loading on mobile
- customize spinner color and overlay animation in react native
- show progress indicator overlay on android and ios

## When to choose
- you need a simple, drop-in loading overlay for a React Native app
- you want customizable spinner color, size, and show/hide animations
- you need to block interaction (including Android back button) during loading

## When to avoid
- you need skeleton screens or shimmer placeholders instead of spinners
- you are building for web or non-React-Native platforms
- you need complex progress reporting rather than an indeterminate spinner
