Is there a way to have a preloader?

At a glance

The post describes a simple animation that plays while the site is loading. The community members in the comments suggest that the use of a loading indicator may not be necessary, as the site should be optimized to avoid the need for such a spinner. They point out that the large background image (2.3MB) is likely the cause of the perceived need for a loading indicator, and recommend using an Image component to optimize the image. Overall, the community members advise against using a loading indicator and suggest optimizing the site's performance instead.

can you show your site? normally this is not a great option, we optimize the platform to not need spinners
I don't see anything that needs a loading indicator
the large image you are having as a background image - use an Image component so it gets optimized
right now your background is 2.3mb and that's probably what makes you think you need a loading indicator
