Installation
Swift Package Manager
Swift Package Manager is a tool for automating the distribution of Swift code and is integrated into the swift
compiler. Once you have your Swift package set up, adding SkeletonUI
as a dependency is as easy as adding it to the dependencies
value of your Package.swift
.
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/CSolanaM/SkeletonUI.git", .branch("master"))
]
CocoaPods
CocoaPods is a centralized dependency manager for Cocoa projects. For usage and installation instructions, visit their website. To integrate SkeletonUI into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile
:
pod 'SkeletonUI'

Usage
Basic one-liner:
import SkeletonUI
import SwiftUI
struct UsersView: View {
@State var users = [String]()
var body: some View {
Text("Finished requesting \(users.count) users!")
.skeleton(with: users.isEmpty)
.onAppear {
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 5) {
self.users = ["John Doe", "Jane Doe", "James Doe", "Judy Doe"]
}
}
}
}
Advanced customization:
import SkeletonUI
import SwiftUI
struct User: Identifiable {
let id = UUID()
let name: String
}
struct UsersView: View {
@State var users = [User]()
var body: some View {
SkeletonList(with: users, quantity: 6) { loading, user in
Text(user?.name)
.skeleton(with: loading)
.shape(type: .rectangle)
.appearance(type: .solid(color: .red, background: .blue))
.multiline(lines: 3, scales: [1: 0.5])
.animation(type: .pulse())
}
.onAppear {
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 5) {
self.users = [User(name: "John Doe"),
User(name: "Jane Doe"),
User(name: "James Doe"),
User(name: "Judy Doe")]
}
}
}
}
