AboutThe Skeleton Loader is a versatile tool designed to help you build professional, high-performance loading states directly in Framer. Instead of showing a blank screen while your content loads, you can keep visitors engaged with smooth, shimmering placeholders that mimic your actual layout. Whether you are building a blog, a store, or a portfolio, this component makes your site feel faster and more polished from the moment it’s opened.
What it doesIt renders a customizable grid of animated placeholders that pulse with a soft highlight. You can define exactly how many items appear and how they are arranged in columns to match your design. Beyond just visuals, it includes a "Content Delay" feature to simulate real-world loading, and it even supports clickable states so your skeletons can act as functional links while the rest of your page settles.
What you can customize
Layout and structure: You can select from various presets like Card, adjust the total count of items, set the number of columns, and fine-tune the gap between elements for a perfect fit.Visuals and animation: Pick your base color and highlight shimmer to match your brand, control the animation speed, and adjust the corner radius to match your site's buttons or images.Interaction and behavior: Toggle the loading state on or off, enable click-throughs to specific URLs, decide if links open in a new tab, and even set a background color for the entire container.
