+## Loading dots spinner
+
+The loading dots spinner is a special spinner that's built using an SVG, making it much easier to work style and animate with CSS. Rather than generate pseudo-elements with `::before` and `::after`, we just have one, tiny HTML element.
+
+{{< callout info >}}
+Loading dots should be named `.loading-dots`, but for consistency's sake, we're using `.spinner-dots`.
+{{< /callout >}}

+{{< example >}}
+<svg class="spinner-dots" width="32" height="16" role="status" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">

+And as usual, this spinner is styled with `currentColor`, so text color utilities can be applied.

 ## Alignment
 
 Spinners in Bootstrap are built with `rem`s, `currentColor`, and `display: inline-flex`. This means they can easily be resized, recolored, and quickly aligned.
