Placeholder

Placeholder is used to reserve space for content that soon will appear in a layout.

Placeholder line

Placeholder lines can contain have lines of text. Their length is different and depends on the col- class.

<div class="placeholder col-9"></div>
<div class="placeholder col-11"></div>
<div class="placeholder col-10"></div>
<div class="placeholder col-8"></div>

However, it may be useful, however, to specify the full width in order to fit the content more effectively.

<div class="placeholder col-12"></div>
<div class="placeholder col-12"></div>
<div class="placeholder col-12"></div>
<div class="placeholder col-12"></div>

You can also move the lines to right or to center:

<div class="text-end">
  <div class="placeholder col-11"></div>
  <div class="placeholder col-10"></div>
  <div class="placeholder col-8"></div>
</div>
<div class="text-center mt-3">
  <div class="placeholder col-11"></div>
  <div class="placeholder col-10"></div>
  <div class="placeholder col-8"></div>
</div>

Placeholder heading

A placeholder can contain also a header element looks like header:

<div class="placeholder col-9 mb-3"></div>
<div class="placeholder placeholder-xs col-10"></div>
<div class="placeholder placeholder-xs col-11"></div>

Placeholder avatar

You can make your placeholder item look like an avatar.

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-auto">
    <div class="avatar placeholder"></div>
  </div>
  <div class="col">
    <div class="placeholder col-9"></div>
    <div class="placeholder col-11"></div>
  </div>
</div>

The size of avatars is exactly the same as a regular avatar.

Placeholder color

By default, the placeholder uses currentColor. This can be overridden with a custom color or utility class.

<span class="placeholder col-12"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12 bg-primary"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12 bg-secondary"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12 bg-success"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12 bg-danger"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12 bg-warning"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12 bg-info"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12 bg-light"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12 bg-dark"></span>

Placeholder sizing

The size of .placeholders are based on the typographic style of the parent element. Customize them with sizing modifiers: .placeholder-lg, .placeholder-sm, or .placeholder-xs.

<span class="placeholder col-12 placeholder-lg"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12 placeholder-sm"></span>
<span class="placeholder col-12 placeholder-xs"></span>

Animation

Animate placeholders with .placeholder-glow or .placeholder-wave to better convey the perception of something being actively loaded.

<p class="placeholder-glow">
  <span class="placeholder col-12"></span>
</p>
<p class="placeholder-wave">
  <span class="placeholder col-12"></span>
</p>
