I have an action that takes a while and need to indicate to the user that something is happening after clicking a button. This is what I’ve come up with:
Is there a better way to approach this?

Hi @sdc50
I also need a button with a “waiting” or “active” indicator.
There might be various of your code to achieve this. But there is currently no builtin method in Panel to easily do this.
Feel free to post a feature request on Github or make a contribution via a PR.
There is also a discussion on how to improve the “loading” experience in Panel in general https://github.com/holoviz/panel/issues/1362. Feel free to join.
Just for the record. The awesome-panel-extensions package contains an alternative Material Design Button based on the MWC web components.
I can see that there is an extension of the MWC button that supports a loading spinner. https://github.com/ExmgElements/exmg-elements-monorepo/tree/master/packages/exmg-button
I might implement that one day.
