Package Exports
- react-native-gradient-shimmer
- react-native-gradient-shimmer/dist/index.js
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (react-native-gradient-shimmer) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
React-Native Gradient Shimmer
⚛ A pure JavaScript, performant, typed shimmer component for Android, iOS and Web.

Requirements
- React Native >= 0.60.0
- expo-linear-gradient or react-native-linear-gradient
Install
Install dependency package
yarn add react-native-gradient-shimmerOr
npm i -S react-native-gradient-shimmerBasic usage
Render the GradientShimmer directly:
import LinearGradient from 'react-native-linear-gradient'; // or 'expo-linear-gradient'
import GradientShimmer from 'react-native-gradient-shimmer';
const App = () => {
return (
<SafeAreaView style={{flex: 1}}>
<GradientShimmer
LinearGradientComponent={LinearGradient}
backgroundColor="red"
highlightColor="blue"
height={120}
width={120}
style={{
borderRadius: 60,
margin: 8,
}}
/>
</SafeAreaView>
);
}
export default App;Or create your own GradientShimmer instance with default props:
import LinearGradient from 'react-native-linear-gradient'; // or 'expo-linear-gradient'
import {createGradientShimmer} from 'react-native-gradient-shimmer';
const CustomGradientShimmer = createGradientShimmer({
backgroundColor: 'red',
highlightColor: 'blue',
LinearGradientComponent: LinearGradient,
})
const App = () => {
return (
<SafeAreaView style={{flex: 1}}>
<CustomGradientShimmer
height={120}
width={120}
style={{
borderRadius: 60,
margin: 8,
}}
/>
</SafeAreaView>
);
}
export default App;See more in the Sample project.
