What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-29, confidence not recorded

An Android library providing a custom RecyclerView that displays shimmer placeholder views while content loads. It offers a built-in demo adapter with show/hide methods and configurable shimmer layouts, colors, and layout managers.

Use cases

  • show shimmer loading placeholders in a RecyclerView list
  • display skeleton screens while fetching data in an Android app
  • add shimmer effect to grid layouts during loading
  • replace content with real adapter after data loads
  • customize shimmer color and demo child count in Android lists

When to choose

  • you need ready-made shimmer/skeleton loading states for Android lists or grids
  • you want a drop-in RecyclerView subclass with minimal setup
  • you need both list and grid shimmer layouts with XML attribute configuration

When to avoid

  • you are not building an Android app
  • you need loading placeholders outside RecyclerView (e.g., plain views)
  • you want a library with active development or a permissive license guarantee
