+## 🆕 What's New
+
+We've added **7 exciting new loaders** to expand your loading animation options:
+
+1. **OrbitLoader** - Beautiful orbiting elements around a central point
+2. **PlaneLoader** - 3D rotating cube with perspective transforms
+3. **RippleLoader** - Expanding ripple rings from a central point
+4. **SquaresLoader** - Multiple rotating squares with dynamic grid effect
+5. **StairLoader** - Cascading stair steps with progress-like effect
+6. **HashtagLoader** - Animated hashtag with progressive drawing
+7. **SnakeLoader** - Snake-like slithering animation with flowing segments
+
+All new loaders support:
+
+- ✅ Customizable colors with `secondaryColor` prop
+- ✅ Adjustable element count (where applicable)
+- ✅ Fullscreen mode support
+- ✅ Accessibility features (ARIA labels, reduced motion)
+- ✅ Performance optimizations with hardware acceleration
