CircularProgress API

The API documentation of the CircularProgress React component. Learn more about the props and the CSS customization points.

Import

import CircularProgress from '@material-ui/core/CircularProgress';
// or
import { CircularProgress } from '@material-ui/core';

You can learn more about the difference by reading this guide.

ARIA

If the progress bar is describing the loading progress of a particular region of a page, you should use aria-describedby to point to the progress bar, and set the aria-busy attribute to true on that region until it has finished loading.

Component name

The MuiCircularProgress name can be used for providing default props or style overrides at the theme level.

Props

Name	Type	Default	Description
classes	object		Override or extend the styles applied to the component. See CSS API below for more details.
color	'inherit' \| 'primary' \| 'secondary'	'primary'	The color of the component. It supports those theme colors that make sense for this component.
disableShrink	bool	false	If `true`, the shrink animation is disabled. This only works if variant is `indeterminate`.
size	number \| string	40	The size of the circle. If using a number, the pixel unit is assumed. If using a string, you need to provide the CSS unit, e.g '3rem'.
thickness	number	3.6	The thickness of the circle.
value	number	0	The value of the progress indicator for the determinate and static variants. Value between 0 and 100.
variant	'determinate' \| 'indeterminate' \| 'static'	'indeterminate'	The variant to use. Use indeterminate when there is no progress value.

The ref is forwarded to the root element.

Any other props supplied will be provided to the root element (native element).

CSS

Rule name	Global class	Description
root	.MuiCircularProgress-root	Styles applied to the root element.
static	.MuiCircularProgress-static	Styles applied to the root element if `variant="static"`.
indeterminate	.MuiCircularProgress-indeterminate	Styles applied to the root element if `variant="indeterminate"`.
colorPrimary	.MuiCircularProgress-colorPrimary	Styles applied to the root element if `color="primary"`.
colorSecondary	.MuiCircularProgress-colorSecondary	Styles applied to the root element if `color="secondary"`.
svg	.MuiCircularProgress-svg	Styles applied to the `svg` element.
circle	.MuiCircularProgress-circle	Styles applied to the `circle` svg path.
circleStatic	.MuiCircularProgress-circleStatic	Styles applied to the `circle` svg path if `variant="static"`.
circleIndeterminate	.MuiCircularProgress-circleIndeterminate	Styles applied to the `circle` svg path if `variant="indeterminate"`.
circleDisableShrink	.MuiCircularProgress-circleDisableShrink	Styles applied to the `circle` svg path if `disableShrink={true}`.

You can override the style of the component thanks to one of these customization points:

With a rule name of the classes object prop.
With a global class name.
With a theme and an overrides property.

If that's not sufficient, you can check the implementation of the component for more detail.
