cli-spinners 2.7.0

Cli-spinners is a handy tool that provides over 70 spinners for use in the terminal. It is essentially a visual effect that enhances the user experience while waiting for a process to complete in the command line interface. This package includes a variety of spinner styles, making it easy for developers to choose a spinner that best suits their application's aesthetics or personal preference. Each spinner in the cli-spinners comes with a recommended interval and an array of frames.

To use cli-spinners, first, you need to have Node.js installed in your system. Once you have Node.js, install cli-spinners using npm by running the command npm install cli-spinners in the terminal. You can then require the 'cli-spinners' module in your JavaScript file. Utilize the spinner of your choice by calling it with the cliSpinners object. Here is a brief example illustrating this:

const cliSpinners = require('cli-spinners');

console.log(cliSpinners.dots);
/* This will output:
{
	interval: 80,
	frames: ['⠋', '⠙', '⠹', '⠸', '⠼', '⠴', '⠦', '⠧', '⠇', '⠏']
}
*/

In this example, 'dots' is one of the spinners contained in the cliSpinners object. You can replace 'dots' with the name of any spinner included in the package to use it.
