A React image component that simulates a shimmer or breathing placeholder effect while images load asynchronously, with support for custom fallback components and error handling. It is a zero-dependency, Suspense-like <img> replacement written in TypeScript.
Use cases
- show a shimmer placeholder while images load in react
- async image loading component for react
- replace img tag with skeleton loader in react
- custom fallback spinner while image loads
- fade-in images when loaded in react
- handle image load errors with fallback ui
When to choose
- you want a lightweight, zero-dependency shimmer image loader for React
- you need Suspense-like image loading with custom fallback components
- you want built-in fade-in and delay options for image loading
When to avoid
- you need skeleton loading for non-image content
- you use a framework other than React
- you need a full-featured image gallery or lazy-loading library
