## What it is
Boneyard is a skeleton loading screen framework that automatically captures pixel-perfect skeleton placeholders from your real rendered UI via a CLI, eliminating manual measurement. It provides Skeleton components for React, Preact, Vue, Svelte 5, Angular, and React Native, backed by static JSON 'bones' registries.

## Use cases
- generate skeleton loading screens automatically from real UI
- avoid hand-tuned skeleton placeholders
- prevent layout shift during data loading
- add skeleton fallbacks to Suspense boundaries with useSuspenseQuery
- generate responsive skeletons matching Tailwind breakpoints
- capture skeletons for React Native apps from a device

## When to choose
- you want pixel-perfect skeleton screens that stay in sync with your actual layout
- you maintain hand-written skeleton components and want to automate them
- you use React, Vue, Svelte, Angular, Preact, or React Native and need a tiny (~7.5KB) runtime
- you want incremental, build-time skeleton generation with a Vite plugin

## When to avoid
- you need a full loading-state management or data-fetching library
- your UI is highly dynamic at runtime so build-time captured bones would go stale
- you use a framework outside the supported list
- you prefer CSS-only shimmer placeholders without a build step
