A small GetX-friendly Shimmer widget for Flutter.

This package provides a lightweight Shimmer widget built using Getx for controller lifecycle and simple configuration. It uses a ShaderMask under the hood to render an animated gradient over a child widget.

Getting started #

Getting started

Usage #

Usage example

Shimmer(
	gradient: LinearGradient(colors: [Colors.grey, Colors.white, Colors.grey]),
	child: Container(
		width: double.infinity,
		height: 16,

	),
)
