Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

react-loading-skeleton

Make beautiful, animated loading skeletons that automatically adapt to your app.

Basic usage

Install by npm/yarn with react-loading-skeleton.

import Skeleton from 'react-loading-skeleton';

<Skeleton/> // Simple, single-line loading skeleton
<Skeleton count={5}/> // Five-line loading skeleton

Principles

Adapts to the styles you have defined

The <Skeleton> component is designed to be used directly in your components, in place of content while it's still loading. Unlike other libraries, rather than meticulously crafting a skeleton screen to match the font-size, line-height or margins your content takes on, use a <Skeleton> component to have it automatically fill the correct dimensions.

For example:

class Blogpost extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div style={{ fontSize: 20, lineHeight: 2 }}>
        <h1>{this.props.title || <Skeleton />}</h1>
        {this.props.body || <Skeleton count={10} />}
      </div>
    );
  }
}

...will produce the correctly-sized skeletons for the heading and body sections without any further configuration of the <Skeleton> component.

This ensures the loading state remains up-to-date with any changes to your layout or typography.

Don't make dedicated skeleton screens

Instead, make components with built-in skeleton states.

In addition to keeping the styling in-sync, here are some other reasons to do this:

  1. Components represent all possible states it can be in - loading included.
  2. It allows for more flexible loading patterns - in the Blogpost example, it's possible to have the title load first, and then the body, while having both pieces of content show loading skeletons at the right time.

Theming

Using a <SkeletonTheme> component, you can easily change the colors of all skeleton components below it in the React hierarchy:

import Skeleton, { SkeletonTheme } from "react-loading-skeleton";

<SkeletonTheme color="#202020" highlightColor="#444">
  <p>
    <Skeleton count={3} />
  </p>
</SkeletonTheme>;

Duration

<Skeleton duration={2} />

duration: Number, defaults to 1.2

Duration is how long it takes do one cycle of the skeleton animation.

Width

width: Number | String | null, defaults to null

<Skeleton width={100} />

Width of the skeleton. Useful when the skeleton is inside an inline element with no width of its own.

Height

Height: Number | String | null, defaults to null

<Skeleton height={100} />

Height of the skeleton. Useful when you don't want to adapt the skeleton to a text element but for instance a card. Also needed for the prop circle (see below).

Circle

Circle: Boolean | false, defaults to false

<Skeleton circle={true} height={50} width={50} />

Prop for making the skeleton look like a circle, for when you are creating a user card with a profile picture for instance.
