Placeholders

Basic example

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.

Width

You can change the width through grid column classes, width utilities, or inline styles.

Color

By default, the placeholder uses currentColor. This can be overridden with a custom color or utility class.

Sizing

The size of .placeholders are based on the typographic style of the parent element. Customize them with sizing modifiers: .placeholder-lg, .placeholder-sm, or .placeholder-xs.

Animation

Animate placeholders with .placeholder-glow or .placeholder-wave to better convey the perception of something being actively loaded.
