ThinkingOrbs Dotted, genuinely 3D loading indicators for AI and agent interfaces in SwiftUI. Nine hand-tuned designs, two purpose-tuned sizes, one line to drop in. That is the whole integration. Eight of the nine designs are real 3D forms, rotated, depth-shaded and z-sorted, and the ninth is a morphing outline. All of them are drawn only in grayscale dots, so they sit quietly in any interface, light or dark. Every orb pauses itself offscreen, stays in phase with the others on screen, and respects Reduce Motion. Download the 30-second demo video (MP4) In Xcode: File > Add Package Dependencies and paste Or in Package.swift: Then add ThinkingOrbs to your target's dependencies. Every design is a case of OrbDesign. Pick the one that says what your agent is actually doing. Two tuned sizes, and they are separate designs, not one design scaled: the small one has fewer, bigger dots and its own…
