rn-placeholder
A React Native library for displaying customizable placeholder content while loading text or media.
What is rn-placeholder?
rn-placeholder is a React Native library that displays customizable placeholder content (skeleton screens) while text or media is loading. It solves the problem of jarring layout shifts and empty states during data fetching by showing animated previews of content structure. The library helps improve perceived performance and user experience in mobile and web applications built with React Native.
React Native developers building mobile or universal applications who need to implement loading states and skeleton screens. It's particularly useful for teams working with Expo, react-native-web, or TypeScript-based projects.
Developers choose rn-placeholder for its clean Suspense-oriented API, cross-platform compatibility, and extensive customization options for both placeholder elements and animations. Unlike generic loading indicators, it provides specific skeleton components that mimic actual content structure while being lightweight and easy to integrate.
