I've used Lottie animations in the past for custom animations of UI elements. Was pretty straightforward and the results looked good. Lots of people are complaining about how heavy it can be, but small UI animations and the lightweight player leave a fairly small footprint.

I wrote up a starter blog on using Lottie for UI in React here: https://labs.thisdot.co/blog/using-lottie-animations-for-ui-...

If you don't want to make your own animations, you can download a ton of free ones to use here: https://lottiefiles.com/
