A CSS-only library for content placeholder (skeleton) loading animations, built with SASS and customizable via variables. It provides simple HTML markup classes for avatars, pictures, and grid-based text bars.
Use cases
- show skeleton loading placeholders while content loads
- add a shimmer loading animation with pure css
- customize placeholder loading styles with sass variables
- display avatar and image placeholders during page load
- avoid javascript for loading spinners
When to choose
- you want a dependency-free, CSS-only skeleton screen solution
- you need flexible, customizable placeholder layouts via SASS variables
- you prefer simple HTML class-based markup over JS components
When to avoid
- you need framework-specific components (React/Vue) with built-in logic
- you require advanced animations beyond shimmer effects
- your project doesn't use CSS preprocessing and you need deep customization
