What is the Tailwind datagrid skeleton component?
A Tailwind datagrid skeleton component acts as a loading placeholder. It appears while data in grids is being fetched or processed. Instead of leaving empty space, it shows simple shapes and gray blocks to indicate loading content. These placeholders use Tailwind CSS classes. They typically have gray backgrounds (bg-gray) and rounded corners (rounded-full) for a clean look. This enhances the user experience by signalling that content is on the way, especially for images or grid cells.
How to use Tailwind loading skeletons?
To create loading skeletons with Tailwind CSS, start by adding utility classes like animate-pulse. This makes the placeholder fade in and out, simulating loading. You apply these classes to simple HTML elements like div or p tags. Then, use width controls (max-w) to adjust the placeholder sizes, making them resemble real text or images. This method helps create a natural-looking layout for fake content. You can also combine this with JavaScript to show or hide the skeleton as data loads.
How to style Tailwind skeletons?
Styling Tailwind skeletons involves using the right utility classes. For instance, bg-gray-300 or similar classes provide a gray colour that mimics a blank area waiting to be filled. Adding rounded-full to circular shapes, like avatars or buttons, keeps them smooth and consistent. You control the size with width (w-20, w-full, etc.) and height classes. Sometimes, adding spinning animations or effects can make loading feel more lively.
How to build Tailwind skeletons using PureCode AI?
To build Tailwind skeletons with PureCode AI, visit the website and state your project needs. Elect Tailwind as the framework and select the type of skeleton style you prefer, such as gray backgrounds or rounded shapes. PureCode AI is a tool that generates code automatically. PureCode AI then produces clean, ready-to-use code with div containers and placeholder sizes (max-w). You can also add animation effects like animate-pulse or spinning effects. Once you generate the code, simply copy it into your project. Customise it if needed to speed up your development.
