An Android library (now deprecated) that makes it easy to display skeleton loading placeholder views with shimmer animation, similar to Facebook and Alipay. It works non-invasively with any View or RecyclerView using a memory-optimised shimmer implementation.
Use cases
- show skeleton loading placeholders while data loads in a RecyclerView
- add shimmer loading animation to any Android view
- display Facebook-style loading screens in an Android app
- show placeholder UI while fetching API data
- replace spinners with skeleton screens on Android
When to choose
- you need skeleton/shimmer loading states in an Android app with minimal code changes
- you want a lightweight, non-invasive placeholder solution for any View or RecyclerView
When to avoid
- starting a new project, since the library is deprecated and unmaintained
- you need Jetpack Compose loading placeholders
- you need guaranteed bug fixes or long-term support
