In the example below, we take a typical card component and recreate it with placeholders applied to create a “loading card”. Size and proportions are the same between the two.
Some quick example text to build on the card title and make up the bulk of the card's content.
Go somewhere
By default, the placeholder
uses currentColor
. This can be overriden with
a custom color or utility class.
You can change the width
through grid column classes, width utilities, or inline
styles.
The size of .placeholder
s are based on the typographic style of the parent element.
Customize them with sizing modifiers: .placeholder-lg
, .placeholder-sm
, or
.placeholder-xs
.
Create placeholders with the .placeholder
class and a grid column class (e.g.,
.col-6
) to set the width
. They can replace the text inside an element or
as be added as a modifier class to an existing component.
Animate placehodlers with .placeholder-glow
or .placeholder-wave
to better
convey the perception of something being actively loaded.
