## 📏 Size Options

### 🔸 Available Sizes

|------|------------|----------|---------|
| `sm` | 20×20px | Small buttons, inline loading | `<groupix-spinner size="sm"></groupix-spinner>` |
| `m` | 30×30px | Form inputs, compact spaces | `<groupix-spinner size="m"></groupix-spinner>` |

| `xl` | 50×50px | Page loading, prominent areas | `<groupix-spinner size="xl"></groupix-spinner>` |
| `xxl` | 60×60px | Full-screen loading, hero sections | `<groupix-spinner size="xxl"></groupix-spinner>` |

### 🎨 Size Examples

```html
<!-- Tiny spinner for buttons -->
<button [disabled]="loading">
  <groupix-spinner *ngIf="loading" size="sm" [ballCount]="3"></groupix-spinner>
  {{ loading ? 'Loading...' : 'Submit' }}
</button>

<!-- Medium spinner for cards -->
<div class="card-loading">
  <groupix-spinner size="m" [ballCount]="5"></groupix-spinner>
</div>

<!-- Large spinner for page loading -->
<div class="page-loader">
  <groupix-spinner size="xl" [ballCount]="7"></groupix-spinner>
  <p>Loading your content...</p>
</div>

<!-- Extra large for splash screens -->
<div class="splash-screen">
  <groupix-spinner size="xxl" [ballCount]="9"></groupix-spinner>
</div>
```

### 💡 Size Tips

- **Responsive Design**: Use CSS media queries to change sizes on different screens
- **Performance**: Smaller sizes with fewer balls load faster
- **Accessibility**: Larger sizes are easier to see for users with visual impairments
- **Context**: Match the spinner size to the content it's loading

## ❓ FAQ

### 🔹 How do I show/hide the spinner dynamically?

Use Angular binding:

```html
<groupix-spinner *ngIf="isLoading"></groupix-spinner>
<button (click)="isLoading = !isLoading">Toggle Spinner</button>
```

### 🔹 How do I customize the spinner appearance?

You can customize ball count and size:

```html
<!-- Small spinner with 3 balls -->
<groupix-spinner 
  [ballCount]="3"
  size="sm">
</groupix-spinner>

<!-- Large spinner with 7 balls -->
<groupix-spinner 
  [ballCount]="7"
  size="xxl">
</groupix-spinner>
```

### 🔹 What's the valid range for ball count?

The ball count must be between 3 and 9. Values outside this range will be automatically clamped.
