About
A shimmering placeholder block that stands in for text, images, or avatars while content is loading. Ported from the Angular Aurora UI library (ngx-aurora-ui) by Konica Maheshwari.
Built with React and Tailwind. Copy the prompt and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor or Lovable: your agent adds Skeleton Loader to your project and fits it to your theme.
Code
How Skeleton Loader is used: the demo's code. The component's own source comes with a free account.
Usage.tsx
"use client";
import Skeleton from "@/components/ui/skeleton";
import { useState } from "react";
export default function SkeletonDemo() {
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
const reload = () => {
setLoading(true);
setTimeout(() => setLoading(false), 1500);
};
return (
<div className="flex flex-col gap-4 w-full max-w-sm">
<div
className="grid grid-cols-[3rem_1fr] gap-4 items-start rounded-lg border p-4"
