## What it is
A Webpack plugin that automatically generates skeleton screen pages for different route pages of a JavaScript application, using Puppeteer to render and extract skeleton placeholders. It packs the generated skeleton pages into the corresponding static route pages via Webpack.

## Use cases
- generate skeleton screens for my SPA routes automatically
- show a loading placeholder while my page bundle loads
- improve perceived performance of a webpack-built app
- create skeleton pages for multiple routes without hand-writing them
- customize loading animations for skeleton screens
- preview skeleton pages on mobile

## When to choose
- you use Webpack and want automated skeleton screens per route
- you want to reduce perceived loading time in a JavaScript SPA
- you want editable, customizable skeleton pages generated from your real pages

## When to avoid
- your project does not use Webpack
- you need a maintained solution - the last release was April 2020
- you use a modern bundler like Vite or esbuild
- you need server-side rendered skeletons
