Skeleton

Import#

import { Skeleton, SkeletonCircle, SkeletonText } from '@chakra-ui/react'

Usage#

You can use it as a standalone component.

Or to wrap another component to take the same height and width.

Useful when fetching remote data.

import { Box } from '@chakra-ui/react'

function Card() {
  const { data, loading, error } = useRemoteData()
  if (error) return <Box children='error' />
  return (
    <Box>
      <Skeleton isLoaded={!loading}>
        <Heading>{data.title}</Heading>
      </Skeleton>
    </Box>
  )
}

Circle and Text Skeleton#

Skeleton color#

You can change the animation color with startColor and endColor.

Skipping the skeleton when content is loaded#

You can prevent the skeleton from rendering using the isLoaded prop.

fadeDuration with isLoaded#

With the fadeDuration prop, you can control the duration of the content fading into view. The value in this prop is a number representing seconds which is part of the animation style prop that is rendered to the component. Default value is 0.4 seconds.

This requires the isLoaded prop, and the animation is best visible when the isLoaded prop is toggled to true.
