Feat: Implement Shimmer while user details are being loaded

[PratyushSingh07]

Summary:

I would love to implement a shimmer that is displayed while the details are being loaded.

Steps to reproduce:

When you open the mobile application then the layout showing the user image and name are empty at first because they are being loaded.
At such a point a shimmer effect would be good to have.

@CodeXstalker are you still working on it ? please give us an update about your progress. If there hasnt been any progress then I would like to re-assign it to someone else

Also @kmanikanta335 , if @CodeXstalker gives up on this issue then it will be assigned to @Thanush66 since he had asked earlier. You will be assigned this issue only if these 2 no longer work on it

No @kmanikanta335, you cannot make a PR as this isn't assigned to you.
Also this isn't where I was expecting the shimmer. I wanted that in the home screen when the user image and text is being loaded. So your PR won't be able to solve the exact issue

[kmanikanta335]

@Thanush66 yeah can you solve this issue ? if yes how many days ?
I can solve this in one day please leave this to me , I really want to become an contributor since I am new and you already an contributor

Hi, I have worked on this issue and want your feedback. I know I haven't been assigned to the case, but I worked on this issue to gain insight into how the app functions.

I have set the network type to UMTS so that the shimmer effect is properly visible while the data is being fetched.

This is how it would look like in Full network:

@PratyushSingh07, please share your review on this

ps: I don't expect this to be merged. I only worked on the issue to have a better understanding of the app since I'm very new to open source.

[PratyushSingh07]

Awesome job @jarvision-git , the effect being showcased in full network is what I actually want.

[kmanikanta335]

@Thanush66 yeah are u still working on it ?
