Skeletons in Bulma
Transform almost any Bulma component into a skeleton loader, or use one of the pre-built utility elements
A skeleton loader is a loading state that acts as a placeholder for content in an interface. Bulma v1 ships with 2 skeleton elements, and skeleton variants for most Bulma components.
All skeleton loaders share these CSS variables:
:root {
--bulma-skeleton-background: var(--bulma-border);
--bulma-skeleton-radius: var(--bulma-radius-small);
--bulma-skeleton-block-min-height: 4.5em;
--bulma-skeleton-lines-gap: 0.75em;
--bulma-skeleton-line-height: 0.75em;
}
The skeleton block is a simple block element with a pulsating background. It has a minimum height of 4.5em.
Example
HTML
<div class="skeleton-block"></div>If you insert text inside this block, you can make its height responsive:
Example
HTML
<div class="skeleton-block">
Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus dolor auctor.
Fusce dapibus, tellus ac cursus commodo, tortor mauris condimentum nibh,
ut fermentum massa justo sit amet risus. Donec sed odio dui.
Nullam quis risus eget urna mollis ornare vel eu leo.
Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes,
nascetur ridiculus mus. Nullam id dolor id
nibh ultricies vehicula ut id elit.
</div>The skeleton lines element is a loading element which resembles a paragraph. Each <div></div> will render as a separate loading line.
Example
HTML
<div class="skeleton-lines">
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
</div>Most Bulma elements and components have a skeleton variant, which can be enabled by adding either the is-skeleton or has-skeleton modifier.

<button class="button is-skeleton">Button</button>
