🎯 Quick Start

Enterprise Approach (Recommended)

import { DynamicSkeleton, createSkeletonSpec } from 'auto-skeleton';

// Define skeleton at build time (zero runtime cost)
const PRODUCT_SKELETON = createSkeletonSpec('ProductCard', [
  { key: 'image', shape: 'rect', width: '100%', height: '200px' },
  { key: 'title', shape: 'line', width: '80%', height: '1.5rem' },
  { key: 'price', shape: 'line', width: '40%', height: '1.25rem' },
  { key: 'button', shape: 'rect', width: '120px', height: '40px' }
]);

function ProductCard({ product, loading }) {
  if (loading) {
    return <DynamicSkeleton componentName="ProductCard" priority="high" />;
  }
  
  return (
    <div>
      <img src={product.image} />
      <h3>{product.name}</h3>
      <div>${product.price}</div>
      <button>Add to Cart</button>
    </div>
  );
}

HOC Pattern (Automatic)

import { withSkeleton, generateComponentSpec } from 'auto-skeleton';

// Auto-generate skeleton spec
const USER_SKELETON = generateComponentSpec('UserProfile', [
  { type: 'image', width: '60px', height: '60px' },
  { type: 'text', width: '60%', height: '1.25rem' },
  { type: 'text', width: '80%', height: '1rem' }
]);

const UserProfile = withSkeleton(UserProfileBase, {
  componentName: 'UserProfile',
  loadingProp: 'loading'
});

// Usage - skeleton shows automatically when loading=true
<UserProfile user={user} loading={loading} />
