PlaceholderHighlight

Defines the visual highlight animation applied to a placeholder.

A placeholder highlight provides animated visual effects that appear on top of placeholder content to indicate loading state. Common implementations include Shimmer, Fade, Pulse, CircularReveal, and LightReveal.

Implementations should define:

• How the highlight is drawn via brush

• The opacity of the highlight via alpha

• The animation timing via animationSpec

Example usage:

Box(
  modifier = Modifier
    .size(200.dp, 50.dp)
    .placeholder(
      visible = isLoading,
      highlight = PlaceholderDefaults.shimmer
    )
)
