A React Native library for displaying animated placeholder skeletons before text or media content loads. It provides composable components like Placeholder, PlaceholderLine, and PlaceholderMedia with built-in animations such as Fade, and works with Expo and react-native-web.
Use cases
- show skeleton loaders while content loads in react native
- display placeholder lines before text renders
- add fade animation to loading placeholders in expo app
- render media placeholders before images load
- use skeleton screens with react-native-web
- customize placeholder line widths and animations
When to choose
- you build React Native or Expo apps and need skeleton loading states
- you want composable placeholder components with built-in animations
- you need placeholders that also work on web via react-native-web
When to avoid
- you need a web-only skeleton library for plain React
- the project needs active maintenance, as it is seeking maintainers
- you need complex shimmer effects beyond the provided animations
