React component that uses SVG to create a collection of loaders which simulates the structure of the content that will be loaded, similar to Facebook cards loaders.

Features

• ⚙️ Completely customizable: you can change the colors, speed and sizes;
• ✏️ Create your own loading: use the create-react-content-loader to create your custom loadings easily;
• 👌 You can use right now: there are a lot of presets to use the loader, see the options;
• 🚀 Performance: react-content-loader uses pure SVG to work, so it works without any extra scripts, canvas, etc;

Usage

Installation

Yarn: $ yarn add react-content-loader

Npm: $ npm i react-content-loader --save

You can use it in two ways (See the options):

// import the component
import ContentLoader, { Facebook } from 'react-content-loader'

const MyLoader = () => <ContentLoader />
const MyFacebookLoader = () => <Facebook />

Or in custom mode, using the online tool

const MyLoader = () => (
  <ContentLoader>
    {/* Pure SVG */}
    <rect x="0" y="0" rx="5" ry="5" width="70" height="70" />
    <rect x="80" y="17" rx="4" ry="4" width="300" height="13" />
    <rect x="80" y="40" rx="3" ry="3" width="250" height="10" />
  </ContentLoader>
)

Options

Name	Type	Default	Description

className	{String}	''	Classname in the <svg/>
width	{Number}	400	viewBox width of <svg/>
