Pulse — A simple pulsating indicator.

Feel free to use it in your application. You can make it imageless but I used an image just because you can easily swap it out and its a little less code.

In plain words

Pulse is a lightweight pulsating indicator component designed for developers to integrate into applications. It provides a simple visual feedback element that can display an image or be used without one, with the image version requiring minimal code for easy customization and swapping. Developers can implement it with or without graphics depending on their project needs.
